Week 1 - 3/10 - 3/16

Learning Pact

We are in this course together. It is a 50-50 relationship, meaning I hope to learn from you just as much as you learn from me. I know there is a difference in power dynamics, but I truly hope to make this our class where we grow together. 

What you can expect from me:

• As the course instructor, I will actively participate in your learning experience.

• I will respond to your questions within 24 hours and provide individualized support in response to your needs.

• I will provide actionable feedback on your assignments within 72 hours.

• I will create a positive and supportive environment where you feel safe to experiment.

• I understand that you are busy and that you have many competing priorities. I will be flexible to support your successful completion of this course when needed.

What I expect from you:

• You will log into our course each week on Mondays to read the announcements and evaluate the work and due dates for that week. 

• You will invest about 8 to 10 hours of time each week on the coursework and assignments.

• You will challenge yourself to try new things, keep an open mind, and recognize that mistakes are a vital part of the learning process. We all make them and we will celebrate them together.

• You will be thoughtful in your interactions with peers, taking extra care to respect diverse perspectives and support the learning of others with diverse experiences in Mathematics. 

• If you identify a concern with meeting a due date, you will contact me directly to discuss your concern and come to an agreement about an extension if needed.

• You will read and apply feedback to assignments and resubmit them to earn a completion.
