Assignments

Georgia Virtual School: This semester we are piloting a new and exciting online course review project in partnership with the Georgia Virtual School. This is an authentic, field-based, online learning experience that should prove to be very valuable and enlightening. Your grade for the project will be based on completing specific readings, discussions, review instruments, virtual meetings, and other requirements as outlined in CourseDen. Participation in this project constitutes a large portion of your grade.
