Labels make a difference

Always use your first and last name on all postings

It is important that you provide a first and last name on all assignment. Many people share a first name, even a last name. Few share both a first and last name.

Ensure that Each Assignment is labeled

Don’t let separate assignments become mixed together

For group postings

Each person in the group must post the assignment, include the members of the group at the top of the assignment, above the answers.

Where do I post my assignment??

For most assignments, you will write out your answers and post them in the comment section at the bottom of the assignment page.

For Group Assignments, you must each post the assignment separately, as described above, despite the fact that they are all the same. If the post does not come from you, you will not get credit.

For assignments which require graphics, you will post a link to a Goolgle Docs page that you will share with everyone.

For directions on how to do this- click here.

How do I post?? Post all work in the comments section below the assignment.

Be sure to label with your name and, if appropriate, members of your group.

Remember!!! Each person in the group will post separately!!

It seems to work best if you write out your answers in a word document first, then paste it into the comment section at the bottom of the section’s assignment page.
