So you need help? Here are some options.

1. Check the frequently asked questions (FAQs) page
2. Post to the class newsgroup at su.class.cs224n
3. Write to the staff mailing list at cs224n-spr0708-staff@lists.stanford.edu
4. Come see one of the course staff during office hours

When you have a question, the quickest way to get a response will probably be to post it to the class newsgroup: su.class.cs224n

The course staff will monitor the newsgroup and will respond to questions posted there — but one advantage of posting to the newsgroup is that another student may be able to answer more promptly. There's a good chance that whatever problem you've encountered has also come up for others.

The newsgroup is also a good way to find programming partners.

Here is some help on using newsgroups at Stanford.

There are two important mailing lists for this class:

Staff mailing list: cs224n-spr0708-staff@lists.stanford.edu
If you have questions that you don't want to post publicly, send them here.

Announcements mailing list: cs224n-spr0708-students@lists.stanford.edu
We'll mail any announcements to this list. Enrolled students are automatically subscribed. Others wishing to receive announcements should send an email to majordomo@lists.stanford.edu with message body "subscribe cs224n-spr0708-guests".
