Welcome to ETC655 Fall 2022

(Same message sent to NAU/BBoard e-mails)

Dear ETC655 students,

Welcome to ETC655! It is great to see many familiar names.

Due to the short course length, the first week of instruction includes Lesson 1: Orientation & Lesson 2. We need to complete Assignment 1: Personal Identity Chart (PIC). In addition, signing up a group ASAP since we have a significant amount of group work in our class. When you complete Lesson 1 requirements, start preparing Lesson 2 instructions.

ETC655 will engage us in many online technology production tasks.  Online technology productions generally are time consuming; therefore, we should prepare our course activities as early as possible and avoid any last-minute work since frequently we need to problem solve on technical issues.  Don't worry!  I will do my best to help you.  Remember, we may work alone but we should work together.  I am just an email away.  Do not hesitate to contact me whenever you need any support.  You can email me at Chih.Tu@nau.edu since I check my NAU email more often than BBLearn email. 

We have fairly heavy readings for our discussions, particularly Lesson 2 and 3.  Be sure to get a head start.

Our course has migrated from the previous semester.  Some course instruction and content may not be migrated correctly.  Please do let me know if you see something that doesn't make sense to you. 

It is always nice to hear from you even if you are doing fine in our class.
