Course: Open PRO110 Safety, Health & Environment > Section: Relevant Course Information

Below are the learning activities you will encounter in this class. Most of them take place each module.

Tailgate Meeting – this page includes a brief overview of what you will accomplish during the period of time in the module and how you should go about getting it done on time.

Reading/Watching/Listening: this area of the course will include

- Videos (or Podcasts) from the field – you can watch/listen to these so that you get input from experts already in the field.

- Textbook Chapters – Much of your terminology and theory will be learned by reading the chapters.

Checking Your Knowledge – these are the questions at the end of the chapters you will read. Answering these questions will give you a chance to practice what you learned in your readings.

Class Discussion

1. Walk Through It - These discussions will help clarify the concepts you learned in the textbook and through our VoiceThread presentations, and they help you to relate your learning to real life applications. Your participation in the discussion forum consists of the two required postings -your initial post and your response to at least one of your peers. You may respond as many times as you wish and I will take the top two responses. Please also respond to students who reply to you as that is what makes this a conversation.

  - These will be rated on the basis that they are college discussions, however, your posts are NOT to be treated as essays; think of a classroom discussion and how you might talk to each other in the classroom, only here those of you who never got a chance to speak or are just too shy, can take your time and formulate your posts before making them public!

2. Toolbox Talk: VoiceThread Presentations - our interactive presentations (your participation is required!) w. We will walk through the information you need to know and I will share my take on current industry topics with you. Also you will have a chance to present, comment and ask questions.

Quizzes: Quizzes will be formulated around your readings, watching, listening & discussion. This is a way for both you and I to see what you know.
