[ED 503 E01 Development/Assessment/Evaluation]

Welcome

This is Dr. Chukwuma Ahanonu. I am the lecturer and "faculty-of-note" for this course. I take this opportunity to welcome you to the Master of Arts in Teaching (graduate) online course ED 503 E01 for the 2021-2022 Spring Semester that starts on Monday, August 16, 2021 and ends on Sunday, September 19, 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic accommodation and modification, the course is one of the Weekend College courses scheduled to be completed in 5-weeks. BE ADVISED THAT WEEKEND COLLEGE IS OF SHORTER DURATION (5 WEEKS) THAN THE REGULAR SEMESTERS. THEREFORE, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO BE STUDIOUS AND DELIBERATE AS YOU COMPLETE THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE COURSE AS DETAILED IN THE SYLLABUS. Completion of the requirements does not automatically grant you passing grades. Passing grades are dependent on scores earned on completed tests and assignments. As an online course, the class will not meet face-to-face with the lecturer at O. P. Lowe Education Building. This course will be taught completely online. Expect further information on this requirement in the syllabus. I look forward to a meaningful and a progressive learning virtual environment. Our major teaching and learning will be through the Canvas platform/medium. All assignments submission must be through the Canvas platform never the lecturer's Valley official email. Although, we have Canvas contact information (Canvas inbox), make it a habit to contact the lecturer through Valley email (cahan@mvsu.edu).

The SYLLAUS for this course is very comprehensive. Make it a point of duty to contact it very often before contacting the lecturer. If you need some clarification, please contact the lecturer in a timely manner. From passed experience, the syllabus is not a contract because it may require some adjustment(s) due to the COVID-19 pandemic, inclement weather that may affect our technology, the progression of, and reflection on the course. You will be informed of any adjustment(s) made to the syllabus. To access the syllabus, click on "Syllabus" navigation button to the left of the screen. Then select the "syllabus" to read more information on the course requirements. Failure to consult the syllabus regularly may contribute to failure in this course.

Another significant navigation button is the "Announcements." Majority of the information for you, the candidates, will be accessed through the "Announcements" navigation button. You should frequent the announcement button to access pertinent information about future assignments. Also, your assignments can be accessed and submitted through the "Assignment" navigation button. E n j o y!

Navigation Tip

The left-side navigation menu includes a "Modules" button, which acts as a gateway to learning content and other helpful resources (including Canvas support).
