My. Education. Lab • This text has a resource website that is part of this course. If you • • • bought a new book, you will receive an access code. If you bought a used book, or the e. Book, you will need to buy an access code. The site includes videos (which will be in our discussions), activities and applications, and individualized study plans (five of which will be completed and submitted to me for grades). This first week is the week to get on to the site, take the Self. Assessment Practice Quiz for Chapter 4 and submit it to me. Since my objective is for you to access the website and learn the self-assessment quiz process itself, you will receive the total amount of points (10 pts. ) for this quiz, regardless of how many questions you answer correctly. You need to submit your quiz results by next Wednesday, Jan. 19 th.

QUESTIONS? • Most questions can be answered in OFFICE HOURS located under DISCUSSIONS… • Only personal issues need to be emailed to me using the D 2 L email account.
