ANNOUNCEMENTS

IF YOU MISSED CLASS TODAY

Today in class we did the following:

• The Course Information Sheet was distributed at the start of class with basic course info.  More detailed information is available in the online SYLLABUS at: http://fp.arizona.edu/kkh/nats101gc/syllabus.htm which should be carefully read.   You can obtain a PDF copy of the course info sheet for your section at the following links:
  
                            Course Info Sheet for GC 170A Lec 001+002 (1:00 - 1:50 pm)            Course Info Sheet for GC 170A Lec 003 + 004 (2:00 - 2:50 pm)
  
  
• All students filled in a short Background Information Form and turned it in before leaving. If you missed today's class, print out the Course Info Sheet above for your section, and snip off the bottom section of each page of the Info Sheet -- that the Course background form that was handed out.  Fill it out, then bring it to Wednesday's class to turn it.
  
  NOTE:  Do NOT look up the answer to the last question to impress me -- just write down what basic knowledge you have in your head now.  This will not be graded!
   
• Dr. H gave an "Overview of the Class" presentation.
  You can review a PDF of Dr H's presentation  here:
