Welcome back to campus, and if this is
your first semester, then welcome to Fullerton College. This course in
College Writing promises to be an engaging class where you have a great deal of
freedom to pick the topics you want to write about.
During the first class
meeting I will be going over the syllabus, answering any of your questions about
the course, demonstrating the course website (www.wiredprof.com)
and Blackboard, the course software.
Most of the readings and activities for
this first week involve the 2 course websites: www.wiredprof.com
and Blackboard. By the end of this first week, you
should have completed the following tasks:
- Read
through the Course Syllabus (Write down any questions you have for the second
class meeting.)
- Browse
around the WiredProf.com site to get familiar with it.
- Read
the FAQs link. (see notes for AOL users)
- Do
browser tune-up for Java (see instructions on the FAQs page).
- Set
up a
private
e-mail account if you don't have one already (see #7
under Technology Concerns.
|
- Set
up your e-mail
profile
so that your personal name appears. E-mail me to test it.
- From
the Resources page, download and customize the essay
document template
(get the right file for your word processor). I will be demonstrating this
in class during week 2
- E-mail
me the customized essay template by the end of Week 2.
(If you are unsure how
to do this after reading the instructions, I will be demonstrating this in
class.)
- Read
through all the links on the Blackboard Central
page.
- Logon
to Blackboard and get familiar with the environment. (If
you want to get ahead, complete the Blackboard activities assignment for
next
week.)
