Week 1 Assignments

---

I want each of you to complete the following tasks:-

1) Complete the actions requested in my Initial Contact message.

2) I have established special conferences in the Web Tycho Conference area for you to respond to the several requests that I have made in the syllabus and my greeting message.

3) Please confirm in the appropriate WebTycho Conferences that you have

• read the course syllabus, guidance, policy, and instruction documents,
• received your textbook, and
• explored the Publisher's and Author's Companion Web Site.

4) I want you also to share in our WebTycho Classroom Conference Area your goals and concerns for this course as well as your special background (experiences and education) that perhaps offer you a unique perspective on this course. Please also update, as needed, your general biographical information is posted in Web Tycho.

6) If you have seldom sent email attachments before - or encountered problems in the past, test your ability to send attachments during Week 1. See my attachment guidance.

7) Confirm by email to me that you have or have access to Microsoft Office software. We will use this commonly available program to create files that can be exchanged, read, critiqued, returned and survive the email environment. If you do not have this program, explain what alternate method you will use to save your files in MS Office format for sharing with the rest of the class.

[Yes, I know, all this and we just met. I want to clear the decks of admin details as soon as possible.]
