As you explore WebCT,
there are several important guidelines for using this site.
- Assignments Section
You will find one assignment for each of the 12 Chapters in
your text. In addition, you will find Outlines 1 - 5, and
Projects 1 and 2. These are grouped by type of project, and
not by date. Be sure to look at the calendar section for an
overall listing of dates when materials are due.
- The Availability dates for
each item begins about 1 week before the item is due.
The item must be submitted with the availability time
period. The ending date (and time) is the last possible
time you can send your material, and still be "on time".
- You will notice an item called
cutoff date. This usually extends one week after the due
date. It is there if you choose to submit an item late.
You will have one letter grade deducted for being late.
After the cutoff date, a late item will not be accepted.
- Chapter Tests (Quizzes)
You will find a quiz for each of the 12 chapters.
In addition there is a Midterm Exam and a Final Exam. The
chapter quizzes are meant to be used as a study guide for
the Midterm and the Final. I do NOT record your chapter
quizzes. You can take these as often as you want to review
the material. I do record your Midterm and your Final.
- Grades
This section will be used to post your grades. Only you can
see your own grades. Grades will be posted after projects
pass the due date.
- Mail
This section will be used for all internet communications.
Check the Mail frequently.
- Discussions
This section will be used in some of the weekly assignments.
I will make topics available as we cover those areas in the
course. At the beginning, only the Main topic is displayed.
After discussions have been completed, I will compile them
into separate documents which you can download and review.
Discussions will be locked and hidden after the time period
expires, but the compiled information will be available in
the Downloads section.
- Downloads
This section will contain information and sample files for
your convenience. In many instances it will duplicate
materials that are available in your assignments. The
compiled discussion questions will be available here.
|
In this first class we
will be covering the syllabus and course calendar. These are
found on the Homepage. Please open the Syllabus and read through
the material. Also, open the Calendar section for a schedule of
assignments and tests. After you have read these materials, use
the Mail section to email me that you understand these items.
Include any questions you have about this course.
|
During this period you
will download the questionnaire file attached
with this Intro assignment, and answer it using the computer.
You will upload this file and submit it for grading.
