Getting Started Overview
January 11-17 · About 1-2 hours, before Module 1
I know you're excited to get going, but before we dive into the course content there are some introductory activities to complete. They will take about one to two hours, depending on your online course experience and comfort with technology, and they are designed to familiarize you with the resources that will make the rest of the semester easier.
Start with the syllabus. Its Course Workflow section explains the rhythm every week follows, and nothing in this course spans more than one week.
