Course Introduction Pt 3
There will be a minimum of straight lecture; which admittedly puts the burden on
you to
master the material. Lecture notes for each session should be brought to class. A
high
level of student participation in the discussions is encouraged and expected.
Asynchronous (Internet) Mode
In this mode, all topics and assignments are the same as in the traditional class mode
except
that in place of class discussions, students are assigned questions one week in advance on
the
Discussion Forum. In lieu of class participation, each student is expected
to respond to the discussion questions. Since the responses of other students who have
already
responded will be viewable, each student is asked to add to, discuss, or debate prior
respondents'
answers. On the day of the session, the instructor will provide summary comments on the
responses
received. One hour will be set aside weekly for a simultaneous multimedia (voice and data)
teleconference to discuss questions and issues raised by students, but attendance is
optional.
