- Read the syllabus (the course web page). Bring questions you have to class. You will sign something in the next item to indicate you read the syllabus.
- I would like to get to know each of you a bit. Print out survey 1 and fill it out.
-
Read textbook "To the student" (p. viii) and the Prologue "Literacy for the Modern World" (P 1–12).
Write a paragraph or two for Prologue discussion question # 7 (P 13). Include at least three items from the Prologue reading in the last part ("encourage..."). If your handwriting is not easy to read, type your paragraph(s). Be careful to answer all 3 questions (there are 4 questions but 3 should apply to you).
- Read 2A (Chapter 2 section A) pp.68–86.
On a different piece of paper in your notebook write up solutions to
2A Q # 2, 6-10; E # 14, 15, 18, 35, 36 (pp.86–89).
"Q" means Quick Quiz and "E" means Exercises. Typically, all written homework will be collected. However, since we are just starting up, I will NOT collect the 2A work this time.
- Survey 1.
- Paragraph answer to Prologue discussion question # 7.
