Canvas

Individual assignment and exam grades will be posted on Canvas. It is your responsibility to check grades to verify their correctness. If you think there is an issue or omission, call it to our attention immediately.

We do not compute your final letter grade within Canvas. Please see the syllabus grading breakdown to see how we convert your individual grades to a final letter grade.

Ed (Replacement for Piazza)

We are trying out EdStem as a modern, streamlined replacement for Piazza this semester. We have heard great things about Ed and hope that it will improve the student learning experience.

We will enroll you directly into Ed using the Scarletmail e-mail address associated with your netid. Please let us know if you have not been enrolled by the first week.

Please exercise respect and basic ettiquete in class communication:

• Do not publicly post items that give away assignment solutions since that constitutes academic misconduct. Instead, post them privately (visible only to yourself and the instructional staff.)
• Please keep posts relevant and respectful.
• Don't use Ed as a way to vent or trash anyone.
• Please don't waste everyone's time posting jokes and other fluff.

If you turn off Ed notifications and miss an important posting, you are responsible.
