Welcome to the Newness

Alright my dear little guinea pigs, we are going to try something new!

Feel free to give me a lot of honest feedback about this new initiative, but since you are my most active and focused and small class, I thought you guys would be better suited to testing this new system out.  So, without further ado...here's the plan.

Each day we have class, I will go beyond just posting the homework and handouts on Blackboard.  I will also archive our class meeting via this blog.  This blog will stay up for the remainder of the course, so unlike BB, you will be able to go back and reflect and review on past lessons as needed.  This also means that if you miss class, you have a chance to get a better idea of what you really missed (beyond that simple blurb about homework that I will always post on BB).  

I will also add a few extra tidbits along the way, links to useful websites and extra practice sheets and stuff.  Sometimes these extras be assigned and collected for homework; however, if you ever need/want extra practice or you would like something to work on with Sarah, you may hit these up as well.  

Now, this blog is an extra, bonus resource for you this term.  You are not required to access this site each and everyday.   There will, of course, be certain days that I need you to access the blog and do some work, but I will always post the link to the blog on the BB site in the announcements section when I post your homework.
