see Methods Assignment Groups
On September 19th – class will take place in Hayes 107. Make sure you have done your reading based blog before coming to class. From this week on I will be looking at dates and times of your blog post to see that you have met deadlines as I grade your activities and assignments. You have had enough time to get used to the pedagogic design and process of this class.

You will have to blog in comments sections of classmates’ blogs after class.

Make sure to get the reading done and blog as instructed – both based on the reading and the secondlife exercise on wednesday before you come to class.

Location – Monday – Olscamp (no computers needed – its a lecture and discussion day).

Reading for next week – once again the blogging based on reading will be due by friday and I will have the reading schedule on blackboard.

Location for Wednesday – Hayes – student Tech center.

For the blogging homework that I told you about in class on Friday – go to the following page

Also note – I am taking account of who is attending class and who is not when I grade. And yes you are being graded on the content of your blogs as well.

But Grad Researchers are not required to be with us unless they choose to join the discussion based on the readings.

Reading for friday – see what I listed for week one on blackboard. I will update the schedule over the weekend. Have the reading done and the writing assignment based on the reading done – as described in class yesterday.

This is why it is important to attend class. I am serious about face-to-face interaction – Verbal and non-verbal face-to-face communication as offline practice. I will not always translate this verbal face-to-face communication into writing – either here on blackboard or on the blog or by email.

Reminder – today all Grad Researchers will also be with us.

Deadline for posting your homework assignment on your blog as described in class (i.e. on a separate page – not post – on your blog) is today.

On Friday we will continue discussion of the homework assignment and readings scheduled for this week (see blackboard week one readings – since we did not get done last week with readings we are doing them this week). I will have you post to your blogs based on the readings as well – so stay tuned for instructions via email and on Blackboard Course Assignment section.
