Orientation

Goals for this week (September 7, 2022)

By the end of the first week (by Sunday, September 11th), what should you know, be able to do and understand?

  1. You'll get to know a bit about your professor and your fellow classmates

  2. You will know what the course is all about and how we're going to run it

  3. You will start to figure out how to use some tools necessary for class.

Overview:

The class provides a transition back to school. We'll discuss the syllabus and getting to know one another. This week I want you to:

  1. Read the syllabus and schedule on Gitbook (i.e. this place). Identify any questions you have and write them down.

  2. Use MS Teams (activate, install and login to the class group).

  3. Read up about the Digital tools we'll be using this year.
