Individual Midterm Conferences

As I discussed Friday in class, I would like to have individual midterm conferences with everyone in the class this week, where we will have a chance to discuss your progress in the course so far and give you a sense of your midterm grade. Here is the procedure/plan:

  • Sign up for a 10-minute time slot in this spreadsheet–just type your name in any open green cell: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Vvv6yVC21Lx3YpN-98x5G7UYOtw4envuZco8pjHtPWs/edit?usp=sharing
    • If none of the available time slots work with your schedule, please send me an email with your availability, and we will figure out an alternate time.
  • Conferences will take place over Blackboard Collaborate. I will schedule Blackboard Collaborate sessions for these times.
    • Please have your mic and if possible your camera turned on.
  • Each time slot is for 10 minutes, which should give us enough time to go through your exam, quiz, and homework scores, and discuss potential areas of improvement for the rest of the semester.
  • This individual conference is meant as a way for us to finally talk on a one-on-one basis, and have a discussion about your progress in the course. Hopefully it will be a good experience for all of us!
  • You will receive 3 participation points (towards the 10% Participation Component of your course grade) for signing up and attending an individual conference.
