How to use
We intend to have people use our Piazza "class" a bit differently from what they might be used to. For simplicity, the discussion board is split up in "notes" for every tutorial. Each "Comments and Discussion" sections of the SimCafe tutorials will redirect you to its corresponding "note". To ask a question or write a comment, first find the "note" matching the tutorial you want to discuss and compose a new followup discussion. DO NOT click the New Post button.
Know that you can navigate the different "notes" by selecting the appropriate general folder. 
And most importantly, feel free to reply to other people's comments or questions! This is actually the whole point of using Piazza along with SimCafe, to make it easier for users to collaborate on developing, upgrading, and maintaining curricular materials on simulation technology.
