This meeting will include your hands-on lab...

Online

1. First read through my "The Big Picture" pages.
2. Next familiarize yourself with the class discussion questions so that you can be thinking of them while you read. Note posting deadlines.
3. Then for this mod you want to read the assigned chapter in your text and then answer the Checking Your Knowledge questions at the end of chapter and upload in Canvas.
4. Work on any Your Calculations Corner assignments (if there are any) before the end of the mod so that you can get feedback from me before the quiz.
5. Take the Reading Quiz when you feel like you will do well.
6. Complete assignments before the due dates-remember, the "due" date is not the "do" date.
7. Be prepared to do the assigned lab in class
By the end of this module, You will be able to:
