Congratulations! You've now completed the course introduction! Not so bad, right? :) Folks usually have a question or two about the syllabus - feel free to shoot those over to me via email (rrevans@uab.edu) if you need.

Now that we've covered all of the "business" of the course, we will start digging into the course content.

Each module will consist of a CONTENT section, a REQUIRED ACTIVITIES section and an OPTIONAL LEARNING section. The course content will be listed in the CONTENT section and will consist of chapter readings, videos, and links to additional supplemental materials.

The REQUIRED ACTIVITIES section will list all activities for the week that are required for successful completion of the course. The REQUIRED ACTIVITIES section is also where you will find required quizzes, and options for submitting papers, assignments as well as discussions. The OPTIONAL LEARNING section is where you will find scenarios to think about and additional articles about the content. These materials are designed to enhance your understanding of the chapter material and serve as a study reference when studying for quizzes and exams.
