another Day One

After meeting two of my sections yesterday, today Section 3 convened for the first time.  They have the same assignment tonight that Sections 4 and 6 did yesterday.  The details are in my blog dated Sunday, August 24.

As for the other groups... we spent the first half of class getting caught up on the blogs.  A few people had some difficulty with the process, but things are getting better all the time, and it was worth spending some class time getting everyone up to speed.  The second half of each class was spent reviewing the syllabus.  I encourage you to peruse this document, and let me know if you have any questions. I think it is useful for you to know what to expect from me, especially in terms of my availability, grading policies, and lateness policies.

Oh, yeah - this is what a 150 word-long blog post looks like.
