Day 1

I will probably open our Webcourses area for you on Wednesday.

Until then, you can do these things:

1. Read the announcements on Blogspot. Our announcements for fall semester PSC1121-0W62 are at

http://online1121.blogspot.com/


2. Purchase the two required textbooks. I have them listed at the above Blogspot. I suggest buying them online; I have not asked the UCF bookstore to supply your textbooks this semester.


3. Do not buy anything other than the textbook and problem solving manual. WebCT Access codes are not required and we will not use them. ThomsonNOW access codes are not required and we will not use them. There are no clickers required and we will not use any of them.

4. If you already have the textbook, you can start skimming and looking over diagrams and figures in chapters 5, 11 and 20.


On Wednesday, after lunch, there will be a list of things to do for the first few days before we launch into the first main learning module.

Wednesday, I will also have the midterm exam schedule and grading scale up, inside Webcourses.
