In most classes, it is important that students and instructors get to know each other. That is sometimes easy in an on-campus class when students and instructors are able to interact in person. Knowing each other can be more of a challenge online, but the class discussion board is a place where students and the instructor can interact with each other.

In this first unit, please introduce yourself to the class. You may discuss your major and your educational and/or career goals and anything else about yourself that you would like to share.

Also, please share how you feel about writing and English classes. What positive aspects do you see with writing? What don’t you like about writing?
