ONLINE STUDENTS
I
need to hear from you by the first day of class (January 23rd) You
should also complete the student
information form by the first day of class. ONLINE
ORIENTATION must
be finished by the end of the first week or you may be dropped
(the menu at the top left links to the SCHEDULE, which lists
what you need to do with links to instructions).
I use Blackboard for class management (quizzes, grades, turning
in work, discussion), so part of the online orientation assignment
is to do some things in Blackboard. The course Web site
has a link to the Blackboard login. Let
me know if you are unable to log in to Blackboard with your college
user name (usually firstlast) and PIN (usually 6-digit birthday). Blackboard
accounts are set up the weekend before classes begin.
To get started with the class, attend the first class session
or go to the online schedule and do everything
listed for the first week. Click
any links in the schedule for instructions, demonstrations, presentations,
etc. You'll want to begin every class session with the
online schedule.
If you are new to online learning, it will probably take a few
weeks to get used to how I do things. Plan to spend a little
extra time at first and don't hesitate to email or call if you
feel lost. That's why I get the big bucks. :-)
