2. Organize Online Study Groups Using zoom:

As the students in this class are spread out across many geographic locations and time zones, it may seem difficult to organize study or discussion groups. To facilitate communications between students I’ve set up a permanent zoom  Link for you as a means to get together and organize yourself.

3. Stay Connected with Fellow Students on Slack:

In addition to a dedicated zoom videoconferencing link, we will also used a dedicated Slack channel to support communication among students and with the instructor. Information on how to access the Slack workspace will be shared with you as we approach the beginning of the semester.
