Details about this class

This course will fully online

My courses are typically a face to face course. What I enjoy the most about the face to face classes is being able to interact with the students and enhance the learning experience with examples.  For my online course, I will do my best to provide assignments that provide a level of interaction that will help you get the most from my course.

Assignments will have mandatory deadlines and to be successful in my course, you should plan time each week to login and interact with the course. I will be presenting topics each week, and there will be weekly assignments. There will also be week one assignment that will be required remain in the course.

If you do not think you can balance the requirements for an online course, I would recommend you take the in person version of this course.
