Pease read the eLearning at UNM‐LA Student Guide available here: http://www.la.unm.edu/elearn/students/eLearning_Student_Guide.pdf
A web‐based course gives students the flexibility of working from home or work at a time of their choice. This does not mean, however, that it is easier than a regular course or that students do not have to work as hard as they would do in a regular course. In fact, a web‐base course poses greater challenges to students as they need to be highly disciplined and organized to be successful.
In average, students need to spend at least nine (9) hours per week on this course. This time will be devoted to reading assigned chapters, lecture notes, and PowerPoint slides, completing
Dr. Yi Yuan, UNM‐LA 2
homework assignments, participating in online discussions, and communicating with other students in the class through email or the discussion forum.
All course assignments and their due dates are posted on WebCT and the course calendar. In addition, there will be announcements from time to time. It is, therefore, your responsibility to check their WebCT account and course calendar several times a week to make sure you are not missing anything.
This course will be composed of five (5) modules.
Module 1. Starting Your Career (Weeks 1 ‐ 3)
[Project 1: Letter and Resume]
Module 2. Doing Research (Weeks 4 ‐ 6)
[Project 2: Research Report on Instructions]
Module 3. Creating Instructions (Weeks 7,8,10)
[Project 3: Instructions]
[Week 9 is Spring Break.]
Module 4. Testing Documents’ Usability (Weeks 11 ‐ 12)
[Project 4: Usability test on the instructions you wrote for Project 3 and revisions afterwards.]
Module 5. Writing Proposals (Weeks 13 ‐ 16)
[Project 5: Proposal]
In addition to the projects, each module will also have a discussion question of its own. Students are required to (1) post an answer to each discussion question, and (2) respond to one or two postings from other students in the class for each discussion question.
There will also be a quiz for each module on one of the chapters assigned for that module.
UNM‐Los Alamos conducts ongoing assessments of student learning so it can continue to improve its curriculum to give you the best education possible. The mechanism for this assessment will be selected by your instructor and may include exams, projects or other assignments. The assessment will focus on the learning outcomes listed in this syllabus. The data from this assessment will be collected anonymously. It will be reported to the department, the
Office of Instruction and posted on the web. The information collected will be used to make improvements to curriculum and teaching. This assessment is not a reflection of your grade and is not a grading exercise; it is simply an evaluation of how well students are mastering certain skills.
Dr. Yi Yuan, UNM‐LA 3
By the end of the semester, you will have learned the analytical, writing, computer, and interpersonal communication skills necessary for creating successful technical and professional documents.
At the conclusion of the course, you should be able to:
1. define the purpose, audience and objective for a given technical document
2. analyze and solve a communication problem using technical or rhetorical techniques
3. analyze the audiences for that communication
4. design/format the pages and visuals for a document
5. test, evaluate and revise the document for usability and readability
6. be able to create several types of technical documents, including memos, instructions, reports, proposals, resumes, and job application letters.
• All assignments are due on or before the date and time stated.
•
Reading assignments are due by the end of the week stated.
• Late work, if arranged with me ahead of time and submitted no later than one week after the due date, will carry a 10% penalty. However, you need to send any late work to me through email since WebCT will NOT accept anything after the due date.
I will use the following grading criteria (taken from Dr. Marsee’s English 219 WebCT course site) when grading your assignments:
Content: Document addresses all questions and concerns your audience may have in sufficient depth and main points are thoroughly supported with examples, illustrations, and explanations.
Structure: Document’s organization is reader‐friendly; contains introduction with purpose statement and other necessary elements; contains paragraphs with a minimum of three sentences and one topic each; sequence of thought is logical and ideas coherently unified.
Page Design and Layout: Document uses appropriate page design that includes consistent use of headings, block paragraphs, and necessary graphics, and allows easy access to information.
Style: Document contains no major errors in punctuation or grammar; contains clear words/phrases in logical sequence; avoids redundancies; uses transitions; and defines jargon as necessary.
Your final course grade will be based on the following:
A+: 100‐97 B+: 89‐87 C+: 79‐77 D+: 69‐67
A: 96‐94 B: 86‐84 C: 76‐74 D: 66‐64

I adhere to the following policies in this course:
Attendance and Participation Policy
“Attendance” and “participation” mean something different in an online class, so this class’s policies may differ from the policies you are used to seeing in your traditional classes. I have the option of dropping you from the course: (a) if you fail to login within five (5) days after the beginning of the semester or course start date; (b) if you fail to login for more than two (2) weeks during the semester; (c) if you fail to turn in three (3) assigned work or exams.
You should discuss any planned absences or problems with attendance with me, and you should discuss with me as soon as possible anytime you cannot login for more than a few days or if you fail to complete an assignment.
Drop Policy
If you decide to drop the class, it is your responsibility to do so; you should be aware of
University‐wide posted deadlines for tuition refunds and mandatory assignment of grades. You should not assume that I will drop you before a deadline if you simply stop logging in.
Dropping a course may affect your financial aid status and/or tuition refund. If you drop after the no‐grade deadline, the grad assigned, either WP (withdrew passing) or WF (withdrew failing), is my decision, the same as for a traditional class.
If you are dropped for nonattendance, you will be notified by email to your UNM email account
(your_NetID@unm.edu). My decision is final, but if you disagree with the action, you must contact me within three working days after the notification is sent.
American Disabilities Act
In accordance with University Policy 2310 and the American Disabilities Act (ADA), academic accommodations may be made for any student who notifies the instructor of the need for an accommodation. It is imperative that you take the initiative to bring such needs to the instructor's attention, as the instructor is not legally permitted to inquire. Students who may require assistance in emergency evacuations should contact the instructor as to the most
Dr. Yi Yuan, UNM‐LA 5 appropriate procedures to follow. Contact Accessibility Services at 505‐661‐4692 for additional information
Response Time Policy
You should login to WebCT a few times a week to check for any announcements or emails from me. You should allow me 24 hours on weekdays and 48 hours on weekends to respond to email
messages or phone calls. Those who receive emails from me should attempt to reply within 48 hours.
Dishonesty Policy
Each student is expected to maintain the highest standards of honesty and integrity in academic and professional matters. The University reserves the right to take disciplinary action, including dismissal, against any student who is found responsible for academic dishonesty. Any student who has been judged to have engaged in academic dishonesty in course work may receive a reduced or failing grade for the work in question and/or for the course.
Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, dishonesty on quizzes, tests or assignments; claiming credit for work not done by oneself; and hindering the academic work of other students.
Online Computer Account Policy
You are required to have a Main campus computer account (NetID). You will use this account to access this course via WebCT. You will also use this account to register for classes through
MyUNM, http://my.unm.edu
, read and send e‐mail (your UNM e‐mail address looks like
NetID@unm.edu), print transcripts, check financial status, and check degree progress. Your
NetID and password for WebCT are the same as for your login to your UNM main campus account.
You can access MyUNM by clicking on the “My UNM” link on either the UNM–Los Alamos web page ( http://www.la.unm.edu ) or the main campus web page (http://www.unm.edu), or by typing in the web address http://my.unm.edu. You must then login using your NetID and password.
If you are going to access WebCT using a secure wireless connection on the UNM‐LA campus
(UNMLA‐LEAP or UNMLA‐PEAP), you will also need a UNM‐LA campus account. To request a
UNM‐LA campus account, email wgilson@unm.edu or gg42350@unm.edu
. For information on accessing the wireless service available on the UNM‐LA campus, see http://www.la.unm.edu/Wireless/ . You don’t need a UNM‐LA account to use the open wireless network on campus (UNMLA‐Guest).
Since this course is taught entirely online, frequent use of a computer is required. You must have access to a computer and to the internet, and you will need to be familiar with the use of a browser such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla, Safari, or Firefox. Access at least part time to a broadband (high speed) internet network, such as DSL, cable, wireless or satellite, is strongly recommended. You can access a broadband network at many libraries and on campus.
Dr. Yi Yuan, UNM‐LA 6
