What do I do if I need assistance with technology or the course? |

I can help
with simple procedures required in the course, but for technical questions,
you should call the college's Help Desk. (Call the operator and ask for the
Help Desk). When you have course questions (navigation, for example), you
should e-mail me or post questions on the course discussions board.

| You must show up for all four
class sessions and you must submit assignments on or before the due dates.

person to my office. |

You must make an appointment with the C@H Desk, and
you must take exams within the scheduled window. You may have 2 hours to
take each exam. You may not bring notes or books into the exam.
