Students are expected to devote a minimum of four hours per class week both reading and logged onto the computer conferencing system or the same amount of time they would spend in the physical classroom. Attendance is tracked by your posting participating in the conference with assigned entry questions. Your instructor must authorize any exception to this, including TDY, as agreeable. Contact your instructor by email. Your work should be your own, unless you are authorized by your instructor to collaborate.
Attendance is required.
Also, all communication over the Internet is subject to the guidelines outlined in the College's On-line Communication Standards. U of California Press, 1998.
