Announcements - Congratulations! We've made it through the first three lectures. You have done an excellent job of getting logged into the course and figuring out the basics. I think we are off to a great learning experience and a very successful class.

Some of you may have panicked a little with the new learning format. There was a lot of new stuff. I'm really happy with the positive attitude you displayed and the way you jumped in and went at it.

Be sure that you are clicking on the colored underlined words in each lecture. They lead you to the pictures, animations and web sites you need to visit.

More than half of the class has taken the introductory quiz, many have done their practice posting and quite a few have submitted their practice essay.
