We have created a page for Math 1920 on the Piazza class discussion system. You can post homework questions there and answer other students' questions. The instructors will also contribute from time to time. At the beginning of classes we will enroll the entire class, upon which you will receive a welcome email inviting you to activate your account. There will be three rules:
- We will not answer homework questions by email. Please post them on Piazza or come to office hours.
- Don't post solutions to any homework problems.
- Before posting please check if your question has been answered before. We will delete duplicates.
