MATH 102 - Online
Intermediate Algebra
Second Letter To Online Students
Hello online math student. There are a few things I would like to mention.
First Thing
It is important that you know that once you have viewed all of the material on Jenzabar now at the beginning of the semester, you will not be using Jenzabar for anything else this semester (unless you care to view the PowerPoint presentations that are there for your benefit). All work you do will be done on the Hawkes program, on your computer.
Second Thing
It is also important that you know about attendance for this online class – as it may affect your financial aid. Each week, at the end of the week, I am required to report attendance. If you are caught up to where you are supposed to be (according to the dates on the course checklist), I will count you OK for attendance. If you have fallen behind, I will mark your attendance as NOT OK. So it is up to you to stay on schedule with this class in order to have satisfactory attendance for the week.
Third Thing
Some of you have not emailed me to establish the communication link yet. Some of you have not enrolled in my Hawkes grade book yet. And some of you have not taken the Pretest yet. That means many of you are already falling behind! Please do these things ASAP. (Remember to print off the checklist on Jenzabar and follow it as a “road map” to make it through this course and keep up with the deadlines.)
Fourth Thing
There are some students who have not completed the Online Student Questionnaire (click on link in bottom right of Jenzabar). Please do this now!
Fifth Thing
If you have any questions, please don’t wait – email me right away. I will be checking my email every day. Also, if you prefer, you can text me. (701-228-4670)

P.S.
If you did not receive my first email, please let me know right away.
