Getting Started
This course site is the main hub for this class. Everything that you need to be successful is here. In fact, there’s a lot of material here and it may be a bit overwhelming.
You’ve probably all heard your instructors say “It’s on the syllabus…” In this case, it’s all on the course site! (Syllabus too!)
Each week of class has a module due by Sunday at noon.
The modules include readings, videos, vocal exercises, and other activities. They’re designed to be reviewed in order, and you’ll find that they stretch across several linked pages. Be mindful of any instructions that tell you if something is optional, will be done in class, etc. as you make your way through.
Presentation and research assignments have varying due dates that will be listed under the Course Schedule. Instructions for all assignments will be available on the Assignments Page. You will find reminders in each module overview and links to the instructions for these projects.
Sometimes things change – I regularly update materials across the site and post announcements, but don’t be afraid to email me if something is missing or isn’t working.
Watch: Course Site Overview (if needed)
The next part of this module will tell you a bit more about the CUNY Academic Commons that hosts this site and help you get set up with an account that will enable you to contribute materials. Any time you see a button like this one on the lower right of a page in the module, you should click to go on to the next page of that module.
