In addition to the bi-weekly f2f meetings in the classroom, the English Grammar class has this online home space on Google Sites. All the course materials are available here. My goal is to make it possible for my students to learn anytime and anywhere beyond the regular classroom meetings. We also use Blackboard, UofSC emails, and Zoom. Below you'll find more details about how each technology is used.
This platform is an online space to share resources with my students. Here, you will find course-related materials including:
the most up-to-date weekly schedule
learning materials used in the face-to-face (f2f) class meetings
supplementary resources for those who want to dig deeper
You should use this site to
catch up in case you miss a class
learn actively by previewing and reviewing the contents
complete the imbeded in-class activities and homework tasks
learn more and deeper about grammar through the recommended resources
Blackboard is used for record-keeping.
When a new grade is posted, an email will be sent to your UofSC student email to remind you to check.
When course-related announcements are created on Blackboard, they will be sent out to your UofSC email simultaneously.
Please check your email regularly for course-related communication.
Please use your student email to
inform me of your absence(s) in advance to make it excused
schedule an f-2-f meeting during my office hours
schedule a meeting (either on Zoom or f-2f) if you can't meet during my office hours
**Assignments submitted through emails are NOT accepted. They should be saved in your e-portfolio on the course Google Site or uploaded to Blackboard.
I usually respond to students' emails within 48 hours. If you don't receive my response in two days, please email me again and make sure you type my email address accurately.
If you have questions about your grades or need help with the coursework, the best way is to discuss them with me during office hours.
I keep my office hours on Blackboard and Zoom simultaneously. You can join my Zoom virtual office here.

If you prefer to meet f-2-f, please email me in advance to schedule the meeting.
If, for any reason, you are unable to come during the scheduled time for an f-2-f meeting, please email me in advance.
