Reviews
The processing speed is very slow on Collab. It takes nearly a full minute to load any page.
App does not assist learning whatsoever. Negative impact on course.
Helps all students hear answers to questions that someone has -- saves me repetition in emails or in class.
I rely on Piazza. It's not perfect, but it is very useful for my classes. I use it for all my classes.
