Heavy Lifting Alert

I will go thru the complete schedule for the remainder of the class in Lecture this week. For each of the three teaching classes remaining (July 7, July 14, and July 28) the class times will be as follows:

Lab 1: 9:00am - 11:40am

Lecture: 11:50am - 12:30pm

Lab 2: 12:40pm - 2:50pm

I have shortened the lecture classes to maximize the time we have in Lab. We're going to need it.

This week, in lab, we will do:

Lecture Test #2 (ch 3 and ch 4)

Excel Ch1 and as much of Ch2 as we can get thru.

We will have a lecture, starting at 11:50am, on Ch. 6 (we don't do Ch. 5)

I have, with regret, eliminated the class participation exercises. Something has to give when a class is missed, and, because that's not part of the core class, the class discussions are the first item to go. Too bad.

Next week (July 14th) we will get as far in Excel as we can, but also leaving enought time for us to do the practice test as a class. I would rather do less of Excel and take the practice test in class than do all of Excel and no practice test.

Your term papers, originally due this week, will be due on July 14th. I like to review what is required the week before they are due, and I didn't have that chance last week.

Please study for this lecture test. It will be harder than the first one, and you have the added burden of an extra week between being taught and being tested.

I hope you are enjoying this fabulous weather, I hope you have a great (and safe) July 4th holiday, and we'll see you on the 7th.
