Online Days, In-Class Days and Submissions for the course

As a Blended Learning version of ENGL393, the course format includes both online and in-class days. You must submit all major assignments in order to pass this course. 

ONLINE DAYS

For this course, Tuesday is designated as our online day. To know exactly what you are expected to do before and during online class days, simply review all information provided under the appropriate day in Pages Links to an external site..

  • Synchronous online work: on some online days you will be expected to complete synchronous online work during your designated class period. All instructions for how to complete this synchronous online work will be provided under the appropriate day in Pages Links to an external site.. Often, this work will be collaborative, and you will be linked to a Google Doc in Collaborations Links to an external site..
  • Asynchronous online work: on other online days, you will be given asynchronous work, meaning you will be able to complete outside of class time, according to the established deadline. Again, simply follow all instructions provided under the appropriate day in Pages Links to an external site..
  • You are expected to be available during all class times Tuesdays as the class schedule may change as needed.

IN-CLASS DAYS

For this course, Thursday is designated as our in-class day. If the classroom has no computer lab, you are expected to bring a laptop to all in-class days in order to access all of your materials online. If you do not have a laptop, or if you need a replacement, you may always borrow one from the library, as described here Links to an external site..

  • As described under ENGL393 Policies And Procedures Links to an external site., you are expected to arrive on time to all in-class meetings. More than two unexcused absences will negatively affect your final grade in the course. Being late twice counts as one absence. 
  • Again, to know what homework is due, and what we will be doing in class on any given day, simply follow all instructions provided under the appropriate day in Pages Links to an external site.. It is the student's responsibility ultimately to know what is due when and to submit work on time. If you are unsure of anything, please ask.

Non class day SUBMISSIONS

At some points during the semester, you will be given submission dates not on class days. These are put in place to give you more time to review and revise drafts if necessary. These submission dates will be reflected on the assignments themselves as well as under the appropriate day in Pages Links to an external site.. You can feel free to submit your work early if it is easier for you to submit on class days.
