If you have not obtained access to the course, you must withdraw from the course to avoid receiving 'F' at the end of the semester. Campus policy does not permit instructors to withdraw students.
You may access your web-based course from any computer that has Internet access. This web-based program called WebCT is our virtual classroom. It is through WebCT that we will read and send mail to each other, have class discussions, and where you will obtain assignments and notes, and will access other parts of the course. Note also that your access to the course is password protected, so you must log on each time you enter the classroom.
WORD PROCESSING REQUIREMENT: This course requires you to use Microsoft WORD as your word processing program. If you submit assignments in MS Works, WordPerfect, etc., points will be deducted from your assignment.
All assignments will be submitted through the “Semester Assignments” icon located on your home page of this course. Late assignments are not accepted; therefore, do NOT wait until the last minute to upload/submit your assignments. You will be allowed ample time to complete and submit each assignment.
