    Assignment for next seven (7) weeks:

    Exam 1 & 2 - V-class meetings


    House Keeping
  • This "House Keeping" section of our syllabus will contain information that may not be mentioned during class. But, you are still responsible for knowing and acting on the information here. This is true even if you missed class.
  • In fact, if you do miss class, you are still responsible for every thing on this weekly syllabus, especially the assignment for next week.
  • It is my intention to start class on time. For us this means 4:30 (not 4:35 or 4:50). Please respect your classmates and instructor -- make every effort to be here on time. If you must be late, be courteous -- sent us an eMail so that we know when to expect you.
  • This Syllabus page will change every week. Changes will (almost always) be ready by 4:00 PM on Sunday before class.
  • (Almost) All assignments are due at 4:00 PM on Sunday before class.
  • Every class will start with Questions -- your questions. Show me that you are interested in our class by being prepared to ask questions, questions about our class, about computers, about any old thing. Don't make me feel silly at the beginning of class -- when I say "any questions?" -- and all I hear is "the sounds of silence."
  • You are expected to keep up with not just your weekly assignments, but that of all your classmates. All assignments will be available to everyone vie eMail or our Discussion Board.
  • Do you have an eMail address? If not, every UNO student can have a UNO eMail address.
  • When sending mail to redCap, to George, or to anyone in our class ... sign your eMail (type your name at bottom or top of every message) because it is not always obvious from your eMail address who you are. Attachments are OK, so long as they are NOT the main text of your message. Keep in mind that not everyone will be able to receive your attachment and/or open it.
