This section of Basic Mathematics is taught
using a WebCt site. Students communicate with Professor Roldan throughout the
semester via website mail, chatroom, or visits to her office. Students are
expected to have access to the Internet and be familiar with WebCt in order to
complete weekly assignments and obtain course information.
All quizzes in this course are taken online, at home or the place of your convenience. Two online exams (a midterm and a final) are taken in a proctored testing center.
If you are a student enrolled in this
course, please do the following:
Step 1: Read and print out the Fall 2008 syllabus.
Step 2: Purchase our class textbook, Basic
Step 3: If you've not yet taken a distance education course
that utilizes WebCT, then you will want to familiarize yourself with this
program by attending one of the free WebCT Training Workshops: http://www.csn.edu/pages/264.asp.
If you are new to WebCT, I very strongly encourage you to attend one of these
sessions, either in-class or online. Learning math is difficult enough without
having to also figure out the computer stuff on your own!
Step 4: Logon to the class website.
You will be able to access our course starting the first day of class, August 25, 2008.
Step 5: If any of the above instructions are not clear, or if
you have any other questions about the course, please contact me at tina.roldan@csn.edu .
