Ask during sessions, or email when a question cannot wait until the next one.

I mark almost everything in this course before Marisol ever sees it — the weekly labs, Assignment 1, the half-finished drafts people bring to sessions wondering if they’re already sunk. That gives me a fairly specific view of this course’s own thesis: I watch the same twenty-odd people hit the same last-mile wall, one week at a time, for a whole semester, and most of them hit it in the same three or four places.

Getting hold of me

Bring lab and Assignment 1 questions to the weekly session first — most of what stalls a submission unsticks faster in five minutes of conversation than in an email thread. If it genuinely can’t wait, email idris.fenn@slop.university and say which week and which artefact; “it’s not working” with no context goes to the bottom of the queue.

Consultation

Thursdays, 2–3pm, or by arrangement if that clashes with something fixed on your end. Lab marking questions go to me or Priya, whoever marked the week in question — the labs page for that week says which.
