On-campus Orientation Meeting For Fall Term 2009

Coming to the on-campus orientation is recommended, though it is not mandatory as some students live too far away to attend. We will go over the course syllabus, access procedures, honor code, grading, and assignment/project requirements.  If you cannot make the on-campus orientation, no problem. All the information is also at our online course site. Please contact me via email (mbarber@fccj.edu) with any questions you have before the class start date. Once the online class is made available to you, use only the messaging system in Blackboard to contact me, not my regular email.

[Note: It will be more meaningful for you if you can bring your text books to the meeting.]

Course Management Tool For Fall Term 2009

The on-line software application used to conduct my on-line classes is Blackboard (http://bb.fscj.edu).

How to Get Started

Make sure you have a FSCJ user-id and password. (To obtain one, go to www.fccj.edu , Online Services, then Student Logon. You will be at the Connections site; just follow the directions on the screen.)  Your user-id and password will allow access into all FSCJ online resources including our course at bb.fscj.edu. When you access the course for the first time, be sure to read the introduction, announcements, assignments, and messages. Your first action steps will be listed there.

Blackboard Course Availability

Access to the course web site will be activated a couple of days before the first day of class.
