Remember you're working for you. Make sure that your workspace is used only for coursework. You must make a commitment to completing all assigned work. This will be a major part of the course. I have assigned several projects that will require you to use the resources of the Internet to complete.
Quizzes are in two forms.
These are to help you to see whether you understand the material you've been assigned. Then there are graded quizzes at the end of each chapter's assigned work. As part of the learning experience, you will be required to engage in a number of discussions using the on-line bulletin board. Your participation in these discussions will be recorded. These will require a coordination of time to get all the parties together.
