These introductory activities are designed to allow us to get to know you, where you are at, and what you are expecting from this class. This is also a time for you to review the course syllabus and get to know the basic tools/platforms were will be using in this class.

You may choose to complete these actrivities prior to the start of classes, or you may wait until after our first lecture (on Thursday, September 28th). During our first lecture, I will orient you to the basic information in and structure of our Canvas and Top Hat course sites. If you need to review any information, you can find the course podcasts by selecting Podcasts from the left-hand navigation menu. TopHat can also be found on the left-hand navigation menu.

Complete the following activities by the end of Week 0 (September 29th).

1.) Introduction Survey

Take a minute to tell us who you are.

2.) Syllabus Quiz

Before completing the syllabus quiz, please review the Getting Started module.

3.) Complete the Unit 1 Module 1 Interactive Readings

Each module will have a series of interactive readings for you to complete in Top Hat.
You are always encouraged to complete the readings ahead of time. This will ensure that you have a heads up on the topics and strategies we will be discussing in lecture and discussion.
Completion of the readings is required and graded. This will contribute to your course participation score.
