6  Set-up for Students

6.0.1 Step 1: Create Your GitHub Account

If you already have a GitHub account under another email address and want to use it for the code review, then please go to the next section. Otherwise:

  1. Go to github.com
  2. Click “Sign up”
  3. Choose a username (tip: it’s recommended to use something professional, as you might later use this account for job applications!)
  4. Use your UCL email address
  5. Create a strong password
  6. Verify your email when GitHub sends you a message

6.0.2 Step 2: Upload Your Assignment to Moodle

  • Submit your code assignment to Moodle as you normally would
  • Also include your GitHub username in your submission, unless your teacher has other specific requests (in that case, follow their instructions).
