COVID-19: For the rest of the semester, discussions and office hours will be strictly online.

Discussions

For discussions, we will use BBCollaborate Ultra accessible via the course Canvas site. You should just need a web browser. They recommend Chrome, though Firefox seems to work just fine for me. (Also, Safari on my iPad seems to work well.)

We will meet at the usual time (Tues/Thurs 8:30-9:20 CDT).

To get to the online discussion, go to the course Canvas site and click “BBCollaborate Ultra” on the left. We’ll be using the general “Course Room”. You can also use the guest url, https://bit.ly/bb882_sp2020.

There’s also an option to join by phone. But I think each student needs to get a unique PIN, so go to the course Canvas site to get the call-in number and your PIN.

I will make everyone a presenter, so you should have control over sharing materials and writing on the white board.

The BBCollaborate course room is open all the time, if you want to test out your audio/video in advance.

Office hours

I also plan to hold office hours using BBCollaborate Ultra. Go to https://bit.ly/offhrs_sp2020.

You can also join the office hours by phone, but again I think each student needs to get a unique PIN, so go to the BBCollaborate session to get the call-in number and your PIN.

I will be available there Tuesdays 9:30-10:30 and Fridays 10:30-11:30.

If you would like to get ahold of me at a different time or using a different method, let me know by email.
