Hi!  I’m Sean Michael Landers, and I’m your professor for this course.  Feel free to call me Sean, or Professor Landers, if you prefer – either way, I’m comfortable.

We’ve got an action-packed semester ahead of us, and it all starts here.   This OpenLab course is where I’ll be posting weekly agenda items, assignments, and other crucial course information.

“What should I do now?”

Great question!

1. Please thoroughly take a look at the Syllabus pages. You may find it helpful to download a copy for easy reference, but be advised that the syllabus is subject to change — the Schedule page and other pages will be updated throughout the semester.
2. If you haven’t already, sign up for the course Slack! A lot of our communication will happen here, especially in the first few weeks of the semester.
3. It would help me do my best as your instructor if you could fill out this quick survey.   It’ll help me get to know you and your peers better, and help me plan more interesting and engaging classes.
4. To get started on the first assignment, navigate to the Activities page and view the first assignment, which includes a link to the video documentary to watch, along with the instructions on how/where/when to post your response.
