All communication is to be respectful—in lectures, labs, office hours, e-mails, the class listserv, and the bulletin board—whether in person or electronic. For more guidance, read about Netiquette.

E-mail

We will be using Umail to reduce spam for the instructor and TAs. Any e-mail address posted on Web sites can be  harvested by spam-bots.

You can communicate with the instructor, TAs, and the listserv using the Umail account. You may send an anonymous e-mail by deleting your name and e-mail address from the Umail. Anonymous  means that you can send e-mail without the Instructors, TAs, or other students knowing who you are. NOTE: If you send an anonymous message, don't expect a personal response; we won't know who you are!

When you have a question about your grade or a course policy, send a Umail to the TA or instructor. You will hear back from us within 24 hours from Monday through Friday. Do not expect an immediate reply on the weekends

E-mail List (Mailman)

All enrolled students are automatically subscribed to our course e-mailing list. Mailman is the software that manages the e-mail list; see this page for more information about using Mailman..

All e-mail list announcements are sent to your UW NetID address. If you forward your UW e-mail to another e-mail address, make sure your e-mail forwarding is up to date and pointing to your favorite e-mail address. 

Be sure to read these e-mail announcements. You are responsible for the content. If you think you missed an announcement, check the listServ archives or the FIT100 Home page for previous announcements.

Send your questions to the class e-mailing list via UMail. Check the box next to "Class Mailing List." If you're shy, delete your name and email from the Umail in order to send your message anonymously. However, if you send a message anonymously, don't expect a personal response; we won't know who you are!

GoPost (discussion board)

Discussion outside of class can take place via GoPost. Students can start new conversations in related discussion threads.

The answer to your questions may already be posted on the class Bulletin Board. Take some time to see what others have posted. If you don't see the answer to your question, post a message in the appropriate discussion thread or start a new one. Be sure to include the project, lecture, or lab in the subject line. Getting a quick answer means making your question easy to find.
