The “Schedule at a Glance” gives you a broad overview of how the course is structured. Your assignments are divided into four color-coded units that match the colors on the “Schedule at a Glance” so that you can easily see when assignments are due. For each unit, read the description provided and then proceed according to the directions. The units must be completed in sequence, starting with Unit One and working through to Unit Four. Each unit has its own folder that contains all of the information you need to complete the unit, points available for each assignment, and total points available for each unit. Please note: there are a lot of instructions included with the assignments. Some people feel they need them, and other people feel they do not need quite so many. It is up to you to determine whether or not you can be successful without them, but keep in mind that this class is designed to make sure everyone can be successful. The assignments in each unit are listed in the order in which they are to be completed. You can use these lists as checklists – once you have completed an assignment, check it off (mentally) and move on to the next. Start early in the week so that you have enough time to read the assigned chapter(s) and complete all assignments for a given week. If you fall behind within a unit, it might be difficult to catch up and move on to the next unit. All assignments, except discussion board and blog original entries, are due by 11:59 pm Sunday night of the week in question (all weeks begin on Monday and all weeks end on Sunday). Discussion board and blog original entries are due by 11:59 pm Friday night of the week in question. This gives you two days to respond to your classmates (and them to respond to you) before 11:59 pm Sunday.
