COURSE CALENDAR FOR SPA 102 ONLINE – FALL 2015 for Vistas, 4th Edition
Use this day-to-day calendar to keep on track with lessons, assignments and assessments.
IMPORTANT: Items that are highlighted are important assessments and assignments. For assessments that appear for multiple days, the first day is when
the assessment becomes available to take. It can be completed at any time in the course of those three days but is due on the last day. For example, COMP. 1
becomes available to take on Friday but must be taken before 11:59pm at the end of Sunday. The only exception is the Oral Exams in Collaborate, for which
you will have to sign up for a particular day that week to meet with the instructor in Collaborate to take the exam. More information and instructions
regarding the oral exam will be provided as the date gets closer.
