**Course Policies** Each module is intended to take about an hour to complete. Some modules may take more time and some less. As with any learning opportunity, what you put into the course will determine what you get out of it. A new module will begin each Monday and all assignments are expected to be completed by Sunday night.

This course is completely online. There are no actual class meetings. Although you have the flexibility of setting your own work schedule, you will be expected to adhere to the class schedule for assignments and participation in the discussions. You will have one week to work on each project. Plan and begin early. Do not wait until the last minute to prepare assignments for submission. Learning online allows you a lot of flexibility. It also takes self-discipline. Dedicate time at a regular interval to work on class assignments.

Assume responsibility for your own learning. This class is both project based and discussion based. Module introductions and tutorial links will only touch on some of the most important aspects of your assignments. As a result, you will be expected to assume a great deal of responsibility for your own learning outcomes. If you are highly motivated, visit the wiki and participate several times in each module and complete assignments… you will be successful.

You and your fellow participants will form a community of learners throughout this course. We want everyone to be a part in the learning. Your fellow classmates are looking forward to reading about your discoveries and opinions on the lessons’ topics. Participation in the discussion questions and writing reflective journals on your wiki are required activities.

Support for the course will be available from the course trainers (through email, phone call or wiki Help Desk), other class participants (through wiki Help Desk) and the campus technologist.

**Course Technologies** For this course you need a computer with access to the internet. All projects will be completed via online sites. Help sheets linked on the site will be PDF files so Adobe Reader is required. It is available on all district computers and can be downloaded at home from [|http://www.adobe.com].

**Course Learning Materials**

**Course Communication** You will receive announcement emails from the instructors to keep you on track in the course. We can be reached via our school email address or phone extension if you have any questions.

**Assessment** Assessment is based on completion of the required activities for each module. Each module will have a rubric of requirements for earning maximum points which translate to the number of hours you receive for the entire class.

Your personal point sheet will be shared with you in Google Docs. You will be able to view your points/hours at any time. No one else (except the trainers) will be able to view or edit this document.
