Intro
We are team H.A.C.K. Our members are Heeju Kim, Aviel Sabbag, Caroline Umila, and KJ Ogundimu. This site is our deliverable report for our term project for the Spring 2022 section of Human-Computer Interaction.
Synopsis
In many computer science classes across the U.S, Piazza is used as a tool both in and out of the
classroom in order to foster discussion. However, there are significant problems with Piazza's
user interface, making it an inefficient tool for activities involved in active collaboration.
By active collaboration, we mean activities in the classroom in which students are synchronously
discussing a prompt and producing content that can be continued outside the class. These problems
in Piazza’s interface become an issue during face to face instruction where work is limited by time
constraints of the class period.
