We welcomed two new students today Shariat Ullah )(Sharif) and Tassneen Hewevy.
The instructor followed up on the book and Blackboard enrollment by asking students if they had ordered/signed up. While many students ordered the book, only three had enrolled in Blackboard. It is important to get on BB as we will be posting assignments there.
Even if students order the book online, they should have it by Sept. 20-22.
We read most of the syllabus in class and will finish up at the next session. At our next session we will also get the group assignment and possibly the "I Am Journal" assignment.
Next class:
Enroll in Blackboard. Five points awarded for students who are on.
Save the syllabus to a folder for the class (suggested name "Speech Critical)."
Read Chapter 1 in Seiler/Beall.
Go to the group topics document (link at left) and decide on a topic that is of interest. If there is a topic you want to propose, we have one open group. Bring your topic to see if others want to join you in the group. The groups will be about five students each in number. Students will be presenting toward the third and fourth weeks of September.
