Read scheduled material before each assigned class. It is important to note that lecture notes and discussion board topics will not necessarily cover all the information in the assigned reading. This, however, does not reduce your responsibility for making sure that you completely read all assigned reading materials. Students are either encouraged to ask question via email to professor, Blackboard, or during the designated office hours to address any misunderstanding of the information presented in class or assigned reading materials.
