Welcome to the class! Here's the course materials and resources to help you succeed in this course.

This site houses most of the content of the course: readings and things to watch, assignment descriptions, and technical tutorials. There are a couple reasons for this: it’s easier and faster for me to update to correct or edit information, and students have shared with me that it’s easier to access and reference what’s needed when it’s not behind a login.

All assignments and discussion posts are turned into D2L or your personal shared folder (more on this in Module 1). All grades will be housed in D2L. Because of FERPA, student personal information (including grades) is protected, which is why Normandale (and many other colleges and universities) have a learning management system like Brightspace D2L that’s secure and password protected.
