All assignments are due '''Tuesday evenings at 11:59 pm'''. Have the assigned text(s) read by Fridays at the latest, so you can post your questions and responses to Packback well ahead of the due date. Procrastination and posting at the last minute will earn you lower grades. I suggest the following work schedule for each week:

* Wednesday: Begin reading the week’s text(s), including background materials; [[September 27, 2020|take notes]] as you read.
* Friday/Saturday: Post your question to Packback.
* Sunday: Finish the reading.
* Monday: Participate in the discussion on Packback.
* Tuesday: Add follow-up posts to Packback. (Remember: you must post one question and two responses each week on Packback.)

Look ahead and plan your reading accordingly. I have tried to keep reading to a minimum, but if you are a slower reader, like I am, you may want to plan out your reading schedule so that you can meet the course deadlines.
