Question

What's the best way to get feedback in Open Study?

Answer 1

Here is some advice to people wanting help in these forums. This is also advice about acquiring good programming skills.

1. Post your code if you want meaningful feedback.
2. Describe in pseudo-code what your application is trying to do. You can embed that in your program in the form of comment statements. Most of the time people get muddled because they haven't clearly thought through the computational steps before they start coding. The instructors tell you this in the lectures. If you provide the pseudo-code then people will in the forum will be able to assist you better.
3. Don't be embarrassed about saying what you don't know or what you don't understand. Research shows that people learn better if they clarify for themselves (self-explanation) what they don't and do understand.

Answer 2

Another option is to join a site called curious reef at curiousreef.com.

Answer 3

interesting site. but the "usability" of open study seems to be much better.

there is very little interaction going in the MIT 6.00 site at curiousreef.com
