NOTE – FOR NEXT CLASS:

 

When you come to class next week, be sure to bring your flash drive with a file (course-related word-processed document) and, if you have one, a PowerPoint presentation that you want to put in your online module.  (For best results, the word-processed document should contain a good amount of text (at least one full page) and be relatively easy to "chunk".)
