Yata learning platform

We will be using the Yata learning platform throughout this course. You need to be registered to the course to get access via the direct link on the Canvas page, or via app.yata.se.

Yata Discussions

We will be using Yata Discussions to facilitate group discussions between students and with teachers. Feel free to post questions, and to contribute with answers and hints. The discussion functionality is inspired by the Stack Exchange forums which are widely used, e.g., in coding communities. You can up- or down-vote posts and you can mark accepted answers. Our aim is to encourage collective efforts and increase individual learning. The interface allows various advanced formatting: (i) latex for math expressions, (ii) code blocks, (iii) links, and you can upload images. Posts can be made anonymously (except for teachers whose names are always displayed).

Yata Questions

We will be using Yata Questions to automatically grade some of the code tasks in the problem sets.
