Due on the OpenLab Sunday, September 8, 11:59pm
Your first assignment is to add yourself to our OpenLab course and to submit a post according to the instructions below. Your post will count toward your participation grade.
Add yourself to our OpenLab course
- If you havenât already, sign up for an OpenLab account using your CityTech email address.
- After youâve logged in, add yourself to our MAT 1375 course by clicking âjoin group.â (This is the course profile page; we wonât be using it again for the rest of the semester. Instead weâll be using the course site.)
Submit a post introducing yourself
- From the class OpenLab site you can create a new post by clicking the symbol that looks like a + sign inside a circle at the top of the screen.
- You must be a member of the course and logged in to see the + sign at the top of the screen. If you donât see it, head back to the course profile to add yourself to the group.
- Title your post âIntroducing [the name you’d like us to call you].â (You do not have to use your real name; you may use just your initials if you like.)
- Tell us anything youâd like us to know about you! Write one paragraph with at least five sentences. Some suggestions areâŚ
- Your pronouns (examples: she/her/hers or he/him/his or they/them/theirs)
- Your major and how you became interested in your major
- Which math classes youâll take after this one (if you donât know, you can check your program requirements in the college catalog here)
- What you hope to do after you graduate from CityTech; short-term goals, long-term goals, whateverâŚOther interests/hobbies you have
- Something youâre good at
- Something youâre bad at (youâre not allowed to say math!)
- An interesting fact about yourself
- A boring fact about yourself
- Your favorite book
- Your favorite animal
- If you feel comfortable, add a picture of yourselfâŚ. OR OF YOUR PETS!!!
- Your post will not be published without a category. On the menu at the right of the screen, click on “Post,” then scroll to “Categories,” and select Introduce yourself.
- Remember that this post will be available publicly on the internet and may be online for several years. Donât include any private information or anything youâre not comfortable with sharing publicly. (For example, donât include your phone number or any answers to security questions!)
- Read and comment on at least one your classmatesâ posts. (Note: the administrator may have to approve your comments, so donât worry if your comments donât appear right away.)
- If you have anything private that youâd like to share with me but not with the whole class (for example, if you are to receive a testing accommodation through Student Support Services), please include this information when you complete the first-day survey.
