The front page of this class has a link to your grades in the menus. Be sure you look at your grades OFTEN, so you can see the feedback from your teacher.

This quarter class is organized into the 4 topic areas listed in the middle column of your class front page.

The first topic contains information about your instructor including your teacher's e-mail address.

The other links in the first topic show which resources you need to be successful in this class, and includes an abbreviated class syllabus. Please review the syllabus regularly. It can be your pacing guide to know how much work you can expect to do to successfully complete this class.

The second topic contains the Start Here information for this quarter class. Be sure to read it thoroughly.

The content of this class is divided into Units and is labeled as such. Work through each unit's lessons for a guide to the learning you need to accomplish.

The third topic contains indented links to the assignments, quizzes, and tests for the class. Each of these items is part of your gradebook. You need to successfully complete each item in topic three. To turn in your assignment, click on the assignment name and then, depending on the assignment type, you use a button labeled [Submit Assignment] or [UPLOAD A FILE] or [EDIT MY SUBMISSION].

You'll see descriptions of your assignments along with the content. Create and then work on your assignments on your local computer.

You must take the test under the supervision of an CVHS certified proctor and you must pass the test to earn credit for this class.
