Your Spring 3 course is available to you now so that you can begin working ahead. This early access allows you to view the syllabus and begin working ahead on your assignments. Any assignments that you complete between now and February 21st, please save them as a word document on your computer. When the course begins on Friday, February 21st you may upload them into the Coursework section on that day.

Please read the assignments and the rubrics carefully before you begin working ahead and let me know if you have any questions.

You are not required to purchase a textbook with this course, but please read the articles and watch the videos provided under each daily module. This will provide content for your learning in this course. Also, please take advantage of the discussion forums throughout this course. This provides you the opportunity to engage with your peers and glean from their experiences as an educator.

I look forward to working with each of you over the next few weeks.
