diligence • I’m here to help if you’ve done your part• “I listened to the lecture and read the material,

but this doesn’t seem clear …”• That could alert me that everyone has that

same question, but you were the one that wrote – so I need to fix that.

(real past questions)• “What’s the lecture time?”• “I missed the lecture, what’s in the lab?”• “ Is there anything important in the lecture?”• “Could you email me the lecture notes?”• “What’s the class page?”• “How do I get to Blackboard?”• “What did you say in the lecture last week?”• “Yo, teach, ….” (subject line)• “Do we have any homework?” (17th week)• “Is ACM membership really required?”
