SHOUT-OUTS
I love this section of the announcements! I can celebrate you making strives in your learning! Online learning can be challenge and requires 2-way communication! I appreciate students going the extra effort to making their learning experience meaningful and with purpose.
Thank you to Chon and Ciara for taking the initiative to contact me when there is a concern with the course. This is a form of leadership and I appreciate your efforts made!

DID YOU KNOW?

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only that that ever has."

In your 2.5 Journal Assignment you are required to reflect upon the following quote. When developing your analysis, try to connect the quote to an experience or yours or close friends/family. This will help develop your argument and allow room to grow your writing. Also, make sure to create a post that's 150 or more words. When I grade your assignments, I use a word counter, Click Here to access the counter: https://wordcounter.net

ELECTRONIC PORTFOLIO HELP! 

I noticed that many of you are having trouble with accessing Electronic Portfolio. Electronic Portfolios (EP) are a large percentage of your weekly averages. Please be sure to follow directions when posting EP assignments. Check out the video below to see a visual example of posting to Electronic Portfolio.
