quizzes, web links and learning activities are all available.
. There are: objectives, animations, self-assessment quizzes, flashcards and labeling
exercises available in each chapter.

reading the assigned pages from the text and participating in the exercises,
performing lab experiments, and studying.
Remember you are not alone out there in cyberspace. If you are confused and need
help, you have classmates that you will meet in your laboratory and talk to in your
discussion group. In addition you can email or call me, Dr. Juen at 595-7517.
Lab: All lab projects are due each Thursday in the onsite lab at Northeast. Failure

918-595-7517. Please check your E-mail frequently as I send out many E-mails to
communicate with you. I will send them to your TCC address. Also check the
announcements on Blackboard frequently.
Communication is critical to the student’s success in an online course. It is your
responsibility as a student to make the instructor aware of your academic difficulties at
the immediate point at which assistance is needed. The instructor is available during
office hours or by special appointment at Tulsa Community College's Northeast Campus.
IF the instructor is in a meeting or unavailable during this time- leave a message on the
class discussion board and give your fellow classmates an opportunity to answer your
question. The instructor will try to get back to you as soon as possible. IF you have not
received an answer within twenty-four hours of the regular work week send an email to
your instructor- paul.juen@mail.tulsacc.edu. If all else fails then, leave a message on
voice mail for Dr. Juen at 595-7517 and I will get back to you as soon as possible
Helpful Communications Hints:
.Always include a subject line
. Remember without facial expressions some contents may be
taken the wrong way. Be careful in wording your
communications. Use of emoticons (smiley faces, etc) might be
helpful in some cases.
. Use standard fonts
. Do not send large attachments without permission.
. Special formatting such as centering, audio messages, tables, html,
etc. should be avoided unless necessary to complete an assignment or
other communication.
