You should do the reading ahead of class, and come in with both
a basic understanding of what you read and a list of questions
covering what you dont understand. You should turn your
electronic devices off so that you are not tempted to let yourself
be distracted during class time.

How I can help you: Contact me via D2L and well work
together to find a way to get you the help you need based on
your needs.
How you can help yourself: Do the reading until you have a
basic grasp of the material, write down any questions you have
after youve done so, and bring those questions to class. Odds
are that if something isnt clear to you, then it isnt clear to your
classmates either.
How your classmates can help you:
Exchange contact information
Set up study groups
Spend time working together in the tutoring lab
