Add a comment to this post. Discuss three pieces of information that caught your attention on the syllabus. These could be questions you have about grading or deadlines, comments on the online component, or observations about the chosen readings…really anything that catches your eye is fine.
By next class (Wednesday, September 1), review your classmates’ questions/comments, and respond to at least one. If someone had a question that you know the answer to, let them know. If you’re also excited about reading a particular text, say so!
Just to make sure-
1) Every week we will have assignments?
2)For all the writing part resources will be in the books?
3)How will be the exam done or we will just submit the papers?
That’s an interesting question I would also like to know how the exams or quizzes will be conducted.
We won’t be using books in the traditional sense. The course materials contain all of the reading assignments. It will mostly be available over the internet.
1. Besides the weekly agenda which will go over the following week, will there be recording of Zoom meetings that would cover the week in the scenario there is an emergency in which a student can’t attend class?
2. In regards to grades is there somewhere we can stay up to date on the grades on assignments with our GPA calculated based on said grades? I’m aware of such function on blackboard but am not as familiar with OpenLab.
3. For office hours, do we need to email in advance to attend/obtain a different or do we use our usual class link during the mentioned office hours in the scenario we feel the need to have a meeting?
For the office hours I think you will have to let her know earlier. About the zoom meetings she will post the powerpoint after class.
1. For the office hours do we use the same zoom link for class or will there be another?
2. Will you be posting the zoom class recordings on Blackboard?
3.How will the weekly assignments work?
1. Out of curiosity I like to know If the grades will appear also on the blackboard session even though we are not using the app.
2. I like to know if we can access the every Wednesday online class session through the blackboard collaborate ultra, although I understand you have sent a link through our city-tech email.
3. Is it possible to go ahead of the class, since all the session is summarized on the class schedule.
1. Will the agenda be posted on blackboard just as it is posted on Blackboard?
2. Will the zoom sessions be recorded and sent to Blackboard as a way of a summary on the class sessions?
3. Will our grades be posted on Blackboard or is there a important website that we have to go to in order to check our grades?
Regarding grades, I was able to access them via Open Lab in another class, but I don’t think these Discussion Board entries will be graded here.
1) How will I be able to monitor my grades?
2) Will they show up on Blackboard like other classes?
3) Will each writing assignment be at least 5-10 pages long?
Those are good questions. I want to know what to expect from the writing assignments. Hopefully it’s something we can handle.
1. Excited to read different genres I wouldn’t usually gravitate to pick up on my own.
2. To “actively participate” would we have to talk through our mic or write in the text box when required?
3. Not looking forward to research papers but understand they have to be done to complete the course.
– For the assignment we should send it before class starts or will it have a due date?
– How many tests or exams do we have?
1. How do you mark lateness? I work full-time, and usually, I’m at home between 5 PM – 5:30 PM, but sometimes I could be stuck in traffic and be home after 6 PM.
2. Is it possible to make an advisement meeting at another time than your office hours?
3. Is there any projects that we will have to submit during the time of the same class?
I’m still trying to get used to online learning. I don’t have any specific questions about the syllabus at the moment. However, I’ll be happy to ask if I have any doubt in the future.
I noticed that you said that we could revise one of our previous assignments. Is this an obligation or a chance to improve our final grade?
How long should the final reflection be?
Will we have questions for the final reflection, or do we write about our journey regarding the class assignments and what we learned.
Thank you for asking that question man. I was wondering if there was a certain amount of words needed for the final reflection.
1. Will lectures be recorded and accessible to us?
2. Will we need to submit projects before class or before EOD?
3. What should I do if I don’t have any other questions or comments about the sylabus?
