1. You will need to download the following from my web site at www.austincc.edu/rebhist or get the material from Blackboard:
1. HIST 2312 DIL syllabus for appropriate semester
2. HIST 2312 DIL learning objectives
2. You will need to send your Student Information Sheet, filled out, to my email address: mrebhorn@austincc.edu. The Student Information Sheet is reproduced below. You can also find it on Blackboard under this course. To avoid having the computer remove your email as spam, please put the word "orientation" as the subject.
3. You will also need to send to my email address above the answers to the following questions:
a. Do you understand that all deadlines must be observed and that work done after the deadlines will not count?
b. Do you understand that you will need to have the textbook and sidebars available online for free at Blackboard?
c. Do you understand that the tests are multiple choice, based on the learning objectives at the beginning of each Unit on Blackboard, and have you reviewed the sample test questions in the HIST 2312 DIL learning objectives on Blackboard?
d. Do you understand the grading system?
e. Do you understand that you are entitled to one retest for EACH test, but that the highest score on this retest is a 21 and that the retesting must be done BEFORE the deadline date?
f. Do you understand that all communication through Blackboard goes to your ACC assigned email account, ending in g.austincc.edu? This means you must know you assigned account and check this account regularly.
4. I will reply to your email indicating I have received your Student Information sheet and question answers. Only when you have received this email reply will you be considered to have been oriented. You must do this by July 10, 2015.
5. If you do not complete the online orientation by July 10, 2015 YOU WILL BE WITHDRAWN FROM THE COURSE!
