Tonight's Assignment

Please read "Open Your Eyes" from Thank You For Arguing for tomorrow.

Welcome!

I hope you all enjoyed your summers (and the reading). I had a wonderful time (and enjoyed reading more than any other activity).Essentially, if you were in this class last year the class rhythym and workload is more or less the same.

Every week I will post your homework on this blog. You will complete the assignments and post them on your blog. The scale will be 1-4, and will be thoroughly explained in the EVL lab tomorrow during class.

Also, all assignments will be graded on a four point scale and your grades will be available to you immediately (using StandardsScore); however, the system is not functional as of yet. When it is working you will be able to access your grades.

All of our class documents are on Sharepoint. As of today you will be able to access them.
