Details about this class
Feel free to browse through the XXXXX in the meantime (you can't 'break' anything).
As I'm sure you're quite aware this is an purely-asynchronous online course (AKA 'online with no scheduled meetings'). We'll 'talk' about this more but in my 15y of teaching online the simple truth is that students who set up a regular study/work schedule, and stick to it as much as they can, always do better. I know it's kinda boring advice, but it's the 'one [not so] easy trick' that pays off over and over again.
I'm very happy to answer any questions you might have before term starts, just email me at michael.christie3@pcc.edu
