²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù

Welcome! I am glad you're here. I'm the instructor, Kelley Whitmore. I've laid out some class details below. 

This is a LIVE remote reading and writing class. The majority of the classwork is done during our classes on Zoom Live Classes. You absolutely need a good Internet connection. 

Access to the class content will be available through the D2L class page on the Friday (March 28) before our first class meeting on Monday, March 31.  Announcement emails will be sent before class begins.

All assignments will be posted on D2L class page. The D2L class page will also have additional learning content. Assignments are based on what is covered during the class time.  We will typically focus on reading on Mondays and writing on Wednesdays.  We will build on what we learn each week. 

While there is no mid-term or final exam, there will be quizzes and writing exercises each week. Developing skills in taking quizzes, writing, and asking questions so that you understand are an essential part of practicing for the GED, college classes and work settings. 

As this is a remote format,  access to your My²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù and your ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù email is integral to your success. 

You can access your ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù email by logging into "My ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù."  Once logged in, look at the top right of the page for an icon shaped like an envelope. Click on that to access your ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù email. NOTE: You have to be accepted into ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù to have a "My ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù" email account.  

Meeting with Students:

Homework help sessions are available by contacting the instructor. These are not required, but available if/when you need to review a class topic. Classes will typically be recorded and posted on the D2L class page. However, this is not a substitute for attending class. 

I will check-in with you regularly on your progress, but please reach out whenever you have a question.  

If you have questions, please email me at kelley.whitmore@pcc.edu. 

We will use D2L which you can access by first logging into your "My ²»Á¼Ñо¿Ëù" account. Once logged in, notice the four icons at the top right of the web page. The first one looks like an open laptop computer. Click on that to access D2L. We will review D2L the first night. 

Having your camera on during class is optional.
