EDUC 1300 2206-IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT OUR FIRST CLASS DAY TOMORROW (7/11/18)

Students;

I received more information yesterday and today about our classroom.  It is located in a “classroom building” which (as I indicated in my previous email) is located in the former small parking lot between PAC and the FTC and titled “T108.”   We are one of the first classes testing this new facility.  Today, I found out the “technology” will not be set up on Thursday.  I exclusively use technology, so if you have it bring your laptop, tablet or phone (everyone has a smart phone, right) and we will make it through my first day presentation.

There’s a lot of information that I will share with you.

Again I am looking forward to meeting everyone tomorrow,

Prof. Sparks
