TDDD27 Advanced Web Programming

Getting help

Times available in the SU-puls are computer for your benefit, but assistants will not be available as a rule. This is not G-level course and you will be responsible for solving problems and performing proper debugging on your own since a prerequisite of the course is that you have good programming skill.

When requesting our help 

The overwhelming majority of the research on higher education show that active student learning is what leads to quality in education. This means that we must enable and require that students take the driving seat in education, which is also something LiU has taken as a strategic decision for how education is supposed to be handled. This aligns with the need of the industry, students that are able to solve technical problems using available information resources and forums, e.g., on the Internet, on their own.

This is the key pedagogical aim of our assistance in this course and we will help you help yourself, not debug your code. Our answers will guide you to good information sources where you should be able to find the answers you are looking for but you are expected to read and find them on your own. You are also required, as a prerequisite of the course, to be able to write programs, debug programs and use modern code editors. This course is in that sense very much like a mini-degree project.

Don't make us Google that for you! You learn much more if you Google it yourself!  

The help provided to student for the TDDD27 course follows this pattern:

• Students that need help post that on the course web forum.
• Include relevant information such as stack traces, code, and information about packages to give the assistant a better chance to understanding your question
• Answers will be provided within 24-48 hours (except during the weekend, naturally)
• If necessary the students and the assistant can arrange a meeting to discuss the problem
