Before classes started, I randomly created working groups for our class. You can see who is in your group if you go to our Canvas site and select "CS351 groups". SEE Projects page for our policy about what work is individual and what is group work as well as issues regarding group membership and changes.

GENERAL GUIDELINES: Assignments turned in AS DIRECTED ON THE assignment statement and/or announcement. You must have your name, the date, and the course name at the top of the first page of ALL documents submitted. SEE LATE POLICY BELOW. Make sure your work is neat and legible (do spell check!). You will be expected to maintain a high degree of responsibility and preparedness including reading material beyond what is covered in the lectures and participating actively in class discussions. I will be available during office hours if you have any questions or concerns. Please try to visit me during office hours. Assessment will be during a scheduled time either (to be determined by instructor choice) the same as the scheduled class time or during finals. You will be notified how this will work later in the term.

YouTube VIDEO SUBMISSIONS
YouTube videos that you share with me demonstrate your work -- the easiest way to do this is via a smartphone (most Android and iOS devices have the ability to upload the video directly to YouTube). It is your responsibility to get a YouTube account and to understand how to post videos so that they are private and only shared with people you directly invite. You can only post videos if you already have a YouTube account.
YouTube TIP: when you "upload" a video to your YouTube - you should set the type to Unlisted.
YouTube How to Share From In YouTube Account: This is how to do this as of the time of editing this document, for recent changes search on "YouTube share private video" or go to YouTube.com to look for help.
Step 1) Log into your YouTube Account
Step 2) After you have uploaded the video and set it to Unlisted go to the Video and hit the "Edit" button.
Step 3) Type in the Name of the Video to reflect the desired name (if it is not already set that way when you uploaded it)

Step 5) Take NOTE of the URL of the video -you will need this to send to me and/or others to view it.
BROWSER, MICROPHONE, WEBCAM, SPEAKERS/HEADSET, INTERNET TECHNOLOGY REQUIREMENTS & more
- I prefer the use of Google Chrome, whatever you choose test and make sure it is compatible with Canvas and Zoom.
- Students will need a stable internet connection and a laptop or desktop computer. There is a Canvas App that can be downloaded. Instructional materials can be downloaded and accessed offline. The App can be used to review notifications, send messages, view content, participate in discussion boards and submit assignments. For exams and quizzes - they should be taken on a desktop or laptop.
- Students will need a webcam, microphone, and speakers. Headphones with built-in microphone)are strongly suggested because it provide better communication quality than the built-in microphone and speakers on computers. These resources are readily available in electronics stores and via the Internet.
- Students must be able to use and create content in common applications like Microsoft Office or Google Suite. Students are able to download Microsoft Office for free by following the directions located here.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT (long version) Mákkin Mak Muwékma Wolwóolum, ’Akkoyt Mak-Warep, Manne Mak Hiswi! We Are Muwekma Ohlone, Welcome To Our Ancestral Homeland!
Muwekma Ohlone Tribal Land Acknowledgment For Cal State University East Bay located in Hayward, CA Jalquin/Yrgin Ancestral Muwekma Ohlone Territory
Horše túuxi! (Hor-sheh troo-hee) Cal State University East Bay recognizes that it is located on the ethnohistoric territory of the Jalquin (hal-keen) / Yrgin (eer-gen), the ancestral and unceded land of the Chochenyo Ohlone-speaking People, the successors of the sovereign Verona Band of Alameda County. This land was and continues to be of great importance to the Muwekma Ohlone Tribe and other familial descendants of the Verona Band. We recognize that every member of the Hayward community has, and continues to benefit from, the use and occupation of this land, since the institution’s founding in 1957. Consistent with our values of community, inclusion, and diversity, we have a responsibility to acknowledge and make visible the university’s relationship to Native peoples. As members of the Hayward community, it is vitally important that we not only recognize the history of the land on which we stand, but also, we recognize that the Muwekma Ohlone people are alive and flourishing members of the Hayward and broader Bay Area communities today.

Important note about a possible work stoppage during the semester!The California Faculty Association (the labor union of Lecturers, Professors, Coaches, Counselors, and Librarians across the 23 CSU campuses) is in a difficult contract dispute with California State University management. It is possible that we will call a strike or other work stoppage this term. I promise to promptly inform you of any schedule disruption. Our working conditions are your learning conditions; we seek to protect both. For further information go to www.CFAbargaining.org. |
