During Our Session:
1. Please make sure you have your headset plugged in and on. I will be turning on the video cam, so have a light on and a smile on your face.
2. Go to our GoToTraining session.
3. Be ready to discussion the session’s topics
If you can’t make it to Class Session: Please make every effort to be here, or let me know if you cannot attend. If you cannot attend the expectation is that you will review the archive of the session and then create a blog entry with the title: “Week 1 Class Session” and write a paragraph per blogging requirements listed in FSO expressing your thoughts or comments on the archived session. This blog entry is only required for those who did not attend and participate in the Wimba session. This will be your fifth blog post for the week.

Wk1 Class Session Grade: Wk1 Class Session = 2% overall course grade. Attend and participate in the session to get full credit. If you cannot attend the session then you can listen to the archive and write a blog post about the archive, noting observations and/or questions.

Pre-Session: Please make sure to thoroughly view all of the videos below before our Class session. If you review the videos than it significantly shortens our need to go over every detail and our Virtual Class session will be a much shorter Q&A session. The goal is to make sure that we’re all on the same page for course requirements.
