//Dear class, //

//Some of you have really done a great job posting the answers to the questions embedded in the Visual Literacy PowerPoint.You have obviously read the guideline for online participation in Week 7 carefully! I am encouraging the others who haven't done so to participate and make up for the Week 7 activities. Although the activities were not f2f-based, you were still expected to participate in Week 7 class as per the guideline I created. Since I didn't receive inquiries from you regarding how to participate, I took it that you had no problems with how to work with the required activities. To earn full participation points for this class, you know that you will need to post last week's in-class assignments as laid out clearly in the Guideline. //

=**Reminder!!!**= No F2F class on Oct. 27. Instead, you will find online participation activities under Hands-on Practice/Week 7.

= Reminder: = Attendance and punctuality are essential to successful participation in learning in this class as there will be many group activities in class. __** Students are expected to be present for all scheduled meeting of courses. **__ In case of an absence from class, **__prior notice__** should be given to the instructor as soon as possible. If illness or other necessity causes prolonged absence (more than 2 class meetings), please consult with registrar and the instructor. If you have to be away for one or two classes, talk with the instructor about how to make up for missed work within a limited time frame.
