DISTANCE LEARNING AND THE INTERNET

This section of English 115 is a distance course. We will not see one another, but we will be in contact:

• you will post your writing to public Forums;
• your instructor will respond to your writing;
• your fellow students may respond to your writing;
• you are encouraged to read and respond to other students' writing;
• you will exchange email with the instructor;
• you may call the instructor when you have questions about the coursework.

You will not be isolated, although you will be doing your work apart from other students.

Since this course is on the Internet, you need to have access to the Internet, including an email address, and be reasonably familiar with how the Internet works in order to do the course work. 

Course Forums are temporary; when the list gets too long, I have to delete the earlier entries. You can count on at least a month for your work to remain online; after that, it depends on the traffic, so keep copies of everything you write in your own files.
