Week 1:
Tue 1/14: Bring your good self and your curiosity! We will get to know each other, and we will go over the syllabus. You can bring a laptop or tablet, but it’s not necessary.
Thu 1/16: Prepare before class:
- Read through the syllabus and annotate using hypothes.is in the group HST107 (Check carefully you are not in “Public”). Note if anything is not clear, or you want to revise some language I used, and add any other general comments you want to share about this syllabus with your class mates.
-
- If you have no comments, add a page note acknowledging that you have read through the syllabus.
- You have to sign up for a (free) account, and Hypothes.is works best with the Google Chrome browser. You install a small plug-in on your Chrome browser, and off you go! This quick-start guide will be useful! You may use an alias to increase your anonymity online, but please let me know (in person or via e-mail) who you are. You may also comment on the syllabus in person or via e-mail.
- If it doesn’t work: don’t panic! Explore for about 20 mins (be inspired by the Cats in the sidebar!), and if it still doesn’t work, get some help: on Thursday we will meet with the Digital Learning team who can also help you on your way. You can also visit the Hive (B06 in Trexler Library) on your own.
-
- Bring your laptop or other large screen device to help set up your own website (Bergbuilds domain).
-
- If you already have a site, please come, we will cover some other things as well!
- We will gather in our classroom (ETT 204) and walk over to the Hive as a group, and remain there for the entire session.
