Notes: • •

The following pages break down everything you need to do each week. If you ever have ANY questions about ANYTHING, text me at 501-912-7272. Please don’t email me. Texting is the best way to contact me. If you need to speak with me, just text me and request that I call you, which I will do as soon as humanly possible. Whenever anything is due, it is actually due before 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, which is technically the first day of the week following the week listed. This is because I didn’t want to make things due at 11:59 p.m. on Saturday nights because making stuff due on a Saturday night is evil. Don’t overthink the reading responses. You just need to post your thoughts on what you read. There is no required number of words. Keep in mind that the whole class will be able to read your posts, so don’t post anything offensive. If you are worried about the reading responses, relax: 99.9% of students receive full credit, and I’ll let you fix it if you’re in the 0.1 percentile.
