I’m Dr. MacDougall, your professor for Environmental Philosophy (PHIL 2400ID). There are two things I want you to know before our first meeting on Wednesday August 28.
1. Most of our written interactions, class updates and materials, are available here on our OpenLab site. Please join our OpenLab section as soon as possible. You will be required to join in order to participate in online discussions. You can also see the schedule and assignments there. We will use Brightspace only on an occasional basis, and this will be announced here and in class.
2. This class is an Open Educational Resource (OER) Zero Textbook Cost (ZTC) course. That means there is no textbook, and all readings are freely available online. This saves you money and means you can store all our readings on your hard drive, indefinitely! You can find links to class readings on the schedule page.
Let me know if you have any questions. I’m looking forward to meeting you.
Dr. MacDougall
