By answering True, I acknowledge that I have received and understand this information: To ease you into the required work habits, the homework assignment of the first week (only) is broken up into two parts. Edfinity 1.1 and 1.2 are already due at 11:59pm on the third day of class.  Edfinity 1.3, 2.1, 2.2 and 2.3 are due at 11:59pm on the fifth day of class. You must receive a grade of 70% or higher on Edfinity 1.1 – 2.3 to remain in the class.  If you receive a grade of less than 70% on these assignments, you will be administratively dropped from the course. An administrative drop is as if you dropped the course yourself during the drop-add period.

By answering True, I acknowledge that I have received and understand this information: Due to the compressed nature of the course, homework assignments are substantial. Each week has the equivalent of two weeks of homework in a full-semester course, plus a lab assignment. Due to the inherent difficulty of the material, you cannot expect to get all homework questions correct on the first try. A correct solution may require reviewing the lecture video or notes again, multiple attempts, posting and waiting for answers to questions on the discussion board or receiving tutoring. Due to both of the preceding factors, you cannot expect to complete a week’s worth of homework assignments in one day. Indeed, a weekly homework assignment is not intended to be completed in one day. The due date is not a suggestion or instruction by the teacher to start working on the assignments on that day. It is merely when the work has to be finished. Success on homework and thus in the course requires that you start each week’s homework assignment several days before the due date.
