Dear SCICU class,
Last Friday four students were not in class. The class needs you and you need to be in attendance each class. The two tools we are are setting up now, your browser as your PLE and your blog as your SCICU e-portfolio are crucial to your learning. Individual students are only able to participate in the class network with certain tools, and the class can only include you when you have the tools you need.
No attendance in SCICU does affect your classmates much more than in classes that use traditional tools like paper, books, and pencils. SCICU tools may not be better, but they are different and it is crucial that you have them so you can participate, and be included. Otherwise learning stops.
Please do your best not to miss any classes. If it is unavoidable, then it is your responsibility to catch up before next class.
I really need and hope for your full cooperation on attendance.
Thank you and see you all tomorrow.
Best,
Owen.
