This is Our Online Learning Community
Learning in this class will never be a lonely endeavor. In this class, you will be a part of a larger learning community much greater than a regular classroom ever could be. Other students taking this class will help you find new ways to explore, to think, to innovate, to develop skills, and to gain understanding that you could never achieve on your own and you are expected to do the same for them. The learning experiences designed for this class are all important for you gain a sense of belonging and understanding of science beyond a classroom that will help keep you engaged and motivated until the end of the school year and hopefully beyond...if you choose to genuinely participate. The most important thing to remember is to never be negative. Be very careful about what you post and find ways to be positive and supportive to everyone so that we all enjoy this experience together. If at any time you become aware of any negative comments or cyberbullying please let the instructor know immediately.
