Computer Peer Teachers (CPTs)

The Computer Peer Teachers (CPTs) offer 1-on-1 help sessions (online via Zoom or in-person in FH 103) for students taking programming classes. These sessions are completely free and can be used to review concepts, go over homework problems, and debug code. However, please note that we will not give you the answers directly; instead, we'll help you better understand the material by building on top of what you're already learning in the classroom. After doing so, you should be better equipped to solve future problems as well as the problems you are facing right now.

CPTs also answer questions on Discord. If you need help with something small, you can ask your question on the #quick-questions channel of the CPT Discord Server. But if your issue is more complex, we strongly encourage you to sign up for a 1-on-1 session since it's better suited for longer discussions. Please note that you may not post code directly into the CPT Discord Server (since other students would be able to view and copy your code). Instead, send it to a CPT directly using email or a Discord Direct Message (DM).

Finally, the CPT program hosts exciting events including the 24-hour Game Jam and various workshops. We strongly encourage students to participate because these events help reinforce programming skills and provide valuable experience. They also help strengthen the CSU Computer Science Community.

Please direct general questions about this program to its coordinator, Simon Richard. Contact info can be found here.
