You should be able to see your answers and score as well as the answers and scores earned by others (but not their names). If you believe I made a mistake in grading, please email me with the details. It is not unusual for me to fix a grade if I graded it wrong. Scores have also been carried over into the semester grade book, where they received a 10% bonus on the raw score. Monday is a holiday, so there is no class that day. We will next meet on Wednesday. That is the day when the first reading assignment is due. It will also be a good opportunity for you to ask about any things that were not clear to you. Have a great weekend! See you Wednesday!

I am pleased to announce that a preliminary syllabus is available. You can find it at http://byuh.doncolton.com/it280/2121/syl.pdf Good news. The textbook is free. You can download it from http://n101.doncolton.com/ The first reading assignment is to read chapters 1 through 4 by Jan 18 at the start of class (12:10 PM). That is pages 9 through 34. That is 26 pages. It should be pretty easy. It would be great if you could reply to me with two pieces of information. (a) I have your preferred name as %pn%. Please let me know if that is the name I should use for you, and if not please let me know the name you would prefer. (b) Please indicate whether you are willing to be called upon to say a prayer in class. I generally do this by assignment, and each person that is willing is usually called upon once or twice during the semester. I look forward to meeting you and having a great semester together! Thanks! Bro Colton P.S. You will probably get more of these emails from me. They will generally have IT 280 at the start of the subject line. # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # # end
