Module+1+Checklist

_Watch the course intro video.

_Review the course syllabus and tour the resource links on the course home page.

_Create your Dissertation Wiki shell.

_Review the information on SugarSync and get your free file management/cloud storage account.

_Post your video introduction to the Discussion Forum and review your cohort members postings.

_Review the “Online Learning at UWG” information. Pay particular attention to the “Student Services” and “Student Orientation” sections.

_ Watch the first video in the “UWG Faculty Speak” series about completing a dissertation and post your thoughts on the class “Talk Back Blog.”*****


 * _Questions? Post them to the General Class Questions Discussion Forum. **


 * This is a unique series of video presentations where UWG faculty tell brief stories about their dissertation journeys, the struggles they encountered, what they wish someone had told them before they started their dissertations, and the lessons that they learned. It is my hope that these videos will be a simple but powerful way to help humanize and demystify the dissertation process. I have also set up a “Talk Back Blog” where you can discuss the videos if you like. If the video does not play, try multiple browsers i.e., if it will not play in Internet Explorer try Firefox and vice versa. This often solves a lot of issues in CourseDen.***

PS: Always watch for announcements and updates in CourseDen.
