This is me (since you won't see me on the first day!)
Watch this space for course updates, for links to important articles or online videos (links are in the links panel to the right and in the text), and for comments from your colleagues in class.
Note that I will not use Blackboard in this class. Blackboard is useful, but kludgy. I find this an easier way to communicate virtually with students, and for students to provide feedback to me and to one another.
Readings for Tuesday
Agar and Douglas & Wind. (Those are clickable links, there). Please download and be ready to discuss these on Tuesday. You should also glance at Chapter I in Keegan (yes, I know it may not yet be in the bookstore: if not, I'll provide some back-up material in class until it arrives). Agar may not be in your course packet.
From time to time, you may wish to know how you are doing, grade-wise, in this class. Blackboard allows you to do this without speaking with or interacting directly with your professor. I think that is not a good idea. If you want to know how you are doing, if you are worried about or especially happy about your grade, come see me.
Office Location & Office Hours
Close Hipp 577. For this class, Tuesday 10:00 am to 11am and by appointment. If I'm not in conference or writing, the door will be open. Feel free to shoot me a text on my mobile phone any time, or drop me an email: ken.erickson@moore.sc.edu. My mobile number appears in the syllabus, but you have to look for it (I'd rather not publish it right here in the blog, for obvious reasons).
