Instructional Format: A class will be held each week in real-time, using the Zoom web conferencing system. In addition, video lessons will be sent out throughout the week. Students will be expected to watch these lessons each week, completing any activities sent out with the video. At the beginning of each week, two video lessons will be sent out with assigned reading. A weekly live class will be held either Wednesday or Thursday of each week (We will determine the exact day depending on the instructor’s and students’ schedules.) After our weekly live class, a review video or videos will be distributed along other assignments.

Office Hours: In addition to the required weekly meetings, the instructors will hold “office hours” each week. Office hours will be conducted using Zoom and will be by appointment.

Students will complete homework assigned from the textbook for each week. Completion of this homework will account for the homework portion of the student’s grade.

There will be one quiz and one test for every chapter. There will be a final exam.

Quizzes = 20%
Chapter Tests = 50%
Homework = 15%
Final Exam = 15%
