Assignments & Schedule
During the semester you will participate in a wide array of assignments according to the schedule below.
READ THESE CAREFULLY & FREQUENTLY:
All work is to be completed by the due date listed in the right hand column below. Late work will usually not be accepted. If you complete assignments after the due date they will show up as a "0" on the grade sheet. The work for each lesson will disappear and be unavailable to complete after the due date in the right column.
You may do as much work as you would like earlier than the due dates, but don't get behind!
Most of these assignments ask you to place your responses in a text box. FIRST type your work on your own computer using your own word processing program (WordPerfect, MSWord, etc.), so you have a backup copy in case something goes wrong. Then paste it in the text box.
Be sure to spell check ALL your work and check it for grammar as well. Poor spelling and grammar will receive less than the maximum amount of points (and it is very distracting).

You'll notice that several of the textbook chapters are not covered in this class.
These are treated fully in my advanced stress management class called
Health 2400 - Emotional Wellness.
This schedule is subject to change based on the speed, direction and focus of the class.
Enjoy!
