Piazza
This term we will be using Piazza for class discussion. The system is highly catered to getting you help fast and efficiently from classmates and myself. Rather than emailing questions to me, I encourage you to post your questions on Piazza.

Moodle
Moodle is where we will post information that can't go on the public Internet. Currently it only contains your grades.
