IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

All the exams and quizzes are proctored by the program PROCTORU for all courses.

I am the instructor for your Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 fully online classes and wanted to reach out to you about some class requirements before the beginning of the term (Aug. 22). Below are the technology requirements for the class. Specifically note the need for a working laptop or computer, an external webcam (available from the school for free), and a microphone. These devices are required for you to be able to complete the proctored testing through ProctorU. Please contact me as soon as possible if you do not have the required equipment.

You need to register for your exams. Please click on the below URL and follow the steps.

Technology Requirements:

Your course will be delivered through Canvas and MindTab Labs. You will register in MindTab Labs on the first day of class through a link in Canvas. There will be detailed instructions for you (and I will be available for assistance).

Canvas is the Learning Management System (LMS) that the college uses for all courses. You are automatically enrolled in Canvas and on the first day of class, you will be able to log into the course. Canvas is the place where we will communicate and where you will find your lecture material. I will send announcements to the entire class in Canvas as well as send private messages to individual students through Canvas. You will also be able to message me in Canvas. You will have lots of resources (videos, handouts, etc.) in Canvas to help you learn the material in the class.

MindTab Lab is our online homework, quiz, and test system. You will practice the concepts you are learning by doing homework in MindTab Lab. For this course, you will purchase a code that will give you access to MindTab Labs. You do not need to purchase a book. The book and learning guide are included in e-text format within MindTab Labs. If you are repeating this course, you will need to purchase a new code.

If you don’t have all of the technical requirements for Honorlock or have any questions, please contact me as soon as possible. The college may be able to help with some needs.

I look forward to working with each of you this fall. You can find a copy of the course syllabus on my faculty webpage at https://lssc.instructure.com/courses/8429
