Welcome to our course wiki. If this is your first experience with using wiks, please go to the wiki tips page and orient yourself to how they are structured as well as their purpose.



[|Course Calendar]

Wednesday April 8
Posted on the E-folio page is the grade sheet that Ellen and I will be using when we grade your projects. It has the same information that is found on the wiki page, but more succinctly. Use it as a checklist before you turn in your wiki & binder. Please have a paper copy of this checklist to turn in with your binder. Thanks so much :)

Tuesday March 24
I haven't heard specifically from any group that would like me to help with input on Wednesday night. So if I don't hear from anyone, I won't be on campus. Feel free to email me however!

Remember we don't meet for class on March 25th.
I will be available via email throughout the week if you have questions. I know some groups are meeting on a different night. Just know that you can email me (or skype me) at any time with questions regarding the group project. ALSO...I made additional wiki pages for your groups, feel free to throw ideas around there and meet online to help organize the presentations. The Professional Development Presentations page lists the schedule of events and links to the individual group wiki pages.

If you read this before class on March 4th, please bring a pair of scissors, to class! We're going low tech tonight!
FYI: I have checked, and because we have the FREE version of the wiki, I don't have the option of an edit button for your posts in the discussion tabs! Sorry, I just caught a grammar error of mine, and can't fix it. I supposed I could copy & paste the old text into a Word doc to fix it, delete the old post, then repost the new version, but whose got time? Ah well....I guess I'd better be more careful in the future!

If you've already bought the 2 textbooks made available via the bookstores that is great. However, I wanted to let you know that there is no PIP packet like the bookstores (or online) may indicate. Sorry for the inconvenience.
