Introduction
An online or face-to-face orientation helps set the stage for your
course. Like the first class session in a face-to-face course,
the orientation is your chance to share expectations and answer questions. The
difference is that you will also need to introduce WebCT/Blackboard
and other technologies you are using.
In this assignment, you will either develop an orientation lesson
plan for a face-to-face orientation, develop an online orientation,
or write an orientation letter to students. If
you choose to develop a plan, include a list of topics and/or learning
activities you'll include with rough time estimates for each. For
an orientation letter, include a welcome message, general information
about how your class will work, and instructions on how to get started.
You can send an orientation letter by email or regular mail. Admissions
can print mailing labels for you. You can request that students
send you an e-mail in the class schedule and respond to that with your
orientation letter.
Here are some examples:
Submitting work
- Upload and submit your file to Blackboard. If you create an online
orientation, tell me how to find it.
