Course Staff and Contact Information¶

Important

When contacting the course staff by email always include your student id number and your home campus into your message. When contacting the teachers through their personal email, also remember to mention the course name.

The main way to contact the course staff is using the general course email: prog3@tuni.fi. If you have questions of a personal nature, email the teachers in charge directly. These include illness, proposals for individual arrangements and other similar issues. Send doctor’s certificates or your proposal for individual arrangements only by secure email!

The teacher in charge of the course is Mika Saari.

Mika Saari
- University Consortium of Pori and Hervanta campus.
- mika.saari@tuni.fi.

Additionally a group of teaching assistants are there to help with the course project and with the weekly exercises. They can be reached through the course email address.

The course has a Mattermost channel Students&Staff:COMP.CS.140 Ohjelmointi 3/Programming 3 in use for real time chatting. Use your @tuni.fi address as your username and on first signin create an account here. The role of the Mattermost channel is to act as a low threshold discussion community on the course topics. You can ask about anything related to the course on the channel and chat about the excercises with other students. First and foremost, Mattermost is a peer support channel. The course staff follows the discussion and answers questions to the best of their abilities, but the staff cannot promise to notice all questions, so it is advisable to use email in case of larger problems. For small things other students may be the fastest way to get help.
