This is web-based
course that is arranged into 18 topics. Each of the 18 topics
covers an important aspect about environmental science. Each of
the topics has at least one (sometimes two or three) slide set
that is narrated. Each topic also includes a reading assignment
from your text and an assignment.
You
will have approximately 12 days to complete each unit. There is
an overlap of unit availability as a convenience to you. Unit assignments
must be submitted through the Blackboard process on time. LATE ASSIGNMENTS
ARE NOT ACCEPTED UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE!!! You will receive
0 out of 25 points for each missed assignment. If you miss more
than 3 assignments, you fail the class. Deadlines are inflexible
because of the high number of assignments (18) and large number
of students taking this class.
I
will grade submissions for a particular assignment at the same
time -- usually within 3 days after the assignment due date. You
will receive a score and some comments from me via the Blackboard record
book.
Before
you submit each assignment be sure to type your name on the assignment.
Assignments without names will have 10 points deducted from them.
