Help Sessions

Help Sessions#

Guidelines for attending help sessions:#

  • Do not come to a help session without first attempting the assignment on your own.

  • Arrive prepared and organized, knowing what you need to ask. Be ready to share any work you have already completed on the assignment.

  • Remember that help session staff are there to help you find answers on your own, not to provide answers for you.

  • Be professional, polite, and courteous at all times. If you do not understand a particular explanation, ask politely to have it repeated.

Question Queue#

Use the form linked in Fig. 1 to submit questions to the question queue during help sessions. Questions will be answered in the order they are received. If you have another question after being helped, please submit another form.

Schedule#

Many help sessions are available throughout the week. Please see below for the times and locations.

Notes

  • You are free to attend any of the office hours provided, even if the professor leading the office hours does not teach your section of ENGR 133.

  • Refer to the course schedule for the holidays in this course, during which, help sessions won’t be hosted.
