If you need assistance in performing the orientation steps, let me know and I will assist you.

To accomplish online orientation, visit the links on the official web page for this course.  The link to the official web page is given above.

Then send me an email message at Baldwin@DickBaldwin.com stating explicitly that you have read, understand, and will comply with the information and instructions provided by the following documents which are accessible at those links.

• Orientation Instructions (this document)
• Syllabus
• Instructor Evaluation Criteria
• Exam Instructions
• Course Schedule

If you follow these instructions carefully, your email message will serve two different purposes.  First, it will verify that you have completed online orientation.  Second, it will provide your email address to me in a form that is useful.

This second requirement is often a problem because many of you have email addresses that do not include your last name.  Even if it does include your last name, there is often something ahead of your last name.  Therefore, an alphabetical listing of email addresses is useless when I need to locate your email address.

Therefore, please begin the subject line of your email message with your last name and cause it to read as follows:

Then I can sort the messages by the subject line and find your email address on the basis of your last name in the subject line.  If you don't do this, don't expect me to send email messages to you.

Please also include your name, work telephone, and home telephone in the body of the email message.
