Getting Started
In this section, participants get a change to become familiar with the applications we will be using for the course. Google Classroom houses online resources, discussion boards, feedback surveys, and the syllabus. During this session will spend time connecting devices to Google Drive and making sure all participants are enrolled in the Google Classroom course. We will also have time to answer any questions or concerns participants may have about the course.
