Other Resources:

Hoot.Me: Facebook application that allows students to collaborate on schoolwork in a variety of ways, even
in subjects such as calculus with complex mathematical equations. The application (created by three UT
students) gives students the ability to search for other students at their university who are working on the
same subject and create study sessions. After finding a study session, multi-person video chatting helps
participants collaborate with more than just one other student, and a smart chat feature gives them the
ability to type in math equations easily. https://hoot.me/
