Task: `q010. Any document you submit to the instructor must be a word-processed document. It is not possible for the instructor to efficiently insert comments into Excel documents, scanned documents or documents submitted on paper or by fax. Don't spread things over multiple documents (e.g., a word processed document with an explanation and a spreadsheet document with some tables and graphs) but copy and paste everything into one document so the reader doesn't waste time flipping from one document to the other. Tables and graphs from Excel and other programs can be copied and pasted into word-processed documents. • Note that for most purposes graphs need to be described in words. the important skill is not the use of a computer program to construct a graph, but your understanding of the essential properties and the meaning of the graph. The only exception to this policy is tests, which are completed in an approved proctoring situation, and are done on paper and in your handwriting (see also instructions previously provided regarding testing). Please summarize your understanding of this policy. **** Your response (insert your response beginning in the next line; the next line is blank and doesn't include the #$... prompt): Any document you turn in myst be a word or text document. It should not be any other type of format, such as Excel or scanned documents. These documents should also all be compiled into one document. It is ok to copy and paste it all together or to import tables and graphs from excel. However, most of these graphs will need to be described in words. The only exception to this rule is tests, which are completed in a proctored setting and are done by hand. #$&* (your response should have gone on the line above this one) Task: `q011. It is usually much more efficient and effective for the instructor to work with you through forms and your Access Page than face-to-face. The instructor enjoys working face-to-face with students, but this is not feasible in an asynchronous course. It is not possible to respond meaningfully to your submitted work, and at the same time to accommodate the desire of a class full of asynchronous distance students for individual face-to-face meetings. For this reason the instructor's office hours are conducted by responding to information received through forms, and face-to-face meetings are normally restricted to matters that have already been addressed to the fullest possible extent via electronic communication (e.g., access page and forms) and have proven impossible to resolve efficiently by this means. This policy makes it possible for the instructor to respond fully to your submitted work and to do so in a timely manner. It also ensures that all students, local as well as non-local, get equal attention from the instructor. Please explain this briefly in your own words. **** Your response (insert your response beginning in the next line; the next line is blank and doesn't include the #$... prompt): It is often more efficient to work with the professor through the forms rather than in person. This is oftentimes note feasible in this type of course. If a face-to-face meeting must occur, it is only after electronic means have been exhausted. This ensures equality for all students throughout the course. #$&* (your response should have gone on the line above this one) Task: `q012. When you take a test you must submit the Test Taken Form (at the General Information page, just below the Submit Work Form) to alert the instructor to be on the lookout for your test. If a test has gone astray (rare but tests can be misrouted) we can more easily trace it if we know promptly that it's missing. Please state this in your own words: **** Your response (insert your response beginning in the next line; the next line is blank and doesn't include the #$... prompt): When you take a test, you must submit the Test Taken Form to let the teacher know to expect your test. This forms aids in finding it if the test gets lost in the mail. #$&* (your response should have gone on the line above this one) Task: `q013. Save all communications from the instructor; you're responsible for doing so. You are also responsible for keeping track of what you have sent the instructor, who can provide more timely and more complete responses if time isn't wasted rereading something re-sent by a student who wasn't weren't sure whether it was sent in the first place. Once your work appears at your Access site (explained when you get your access code), however, you may assume that it is safely stored in at least two places. State this in your own words. **** our response (insert your response beginning in the next line; the next line is blank and doesn't include the #$... prompt): You must save all correspondence with the instructor. This includes incoming and outgoing correspondence. You will know when it is stored in the Access site. #$&* (your response should have gone on the line above this one) Task: `q014. If you submit a document and get a form confirmation, then the document has been received. It might happen that you submit a document then realize you didn't submit your identifying information. If this happens, then submit it once more, and be sure to carefully include your information. However, do your best to get it right the first time. Please respond with a statement detailing your understanding of the process of submitting a document. **** Your response (insert your response beginning in the next line; the next line is blank and doesn't include the #$... prompt): I understand that if I get a confirmation when I send a document, I know it has been sent. If I submit a document and did not include my access information, then I will submit it again with the correct information #$&* (your response should have gone on the line above this one) *#&!
