Course Outline

Use the outline below to pace yourself as you work through the instructional materials for this course. The outline lists thirty lessons and three examinations. You should plan on completing two lessons each week. It is not wise to attempt to do more than two lessons per week as other course activities (e.g., the weekly chat sessions) are most beneficial when all students are at the same point in the course. It is equally important to avoid falling behind. If you have any difficulty maintaining this pace, please notify both your instructor and the graduate assistant and seek their help.

Each lesson may include one or more assignments. These assignments are to be completed prior to the beginning of the next lesson. Assignments are due at the end of each week, usually by midnight on Sunday. Since most assignments are completed on the class server, the graduate assistant for this course will check the class server on Monday morning for the previous week's assignments.

Details about each of the examinations (e.g., location, coverage, format, time allocation, etc.) will be provided during the week immediately prior to the exam. At the very least, you will be expected to complete the final examination "on campus." This means that you will take the final exam either at the UT campus or on the campus of one of our many community college partners. Other options are also possible. Arrangements for the final exam will be made with the help of the graduate assistant and the course instructor.
