Hello Everyone! 

I am Professor Canania and I would like to welcome everyone to class. In order for you to get the most out of your experience in this course, here are a few tips: 

1) Schedule your time wisely! - this course has a lot of assignments due every week. I have done my best to schedule these assignment in a way to help spread out the work during the week. However, many days involve 2 or 3 assignment due at the same time. These assignments are NOT easy. I strongly caution you to avoid waiting until the last minute to complete. 

2) Use the Ask Questions forums and Private Discussion Forum to get help! - If you have a question or need help with a subject use these resources and I will do my best to provide timely assistance. As well, other students may be able to answer your questions. Student collaboration is a great tool for success. I encourage you to reach out and communicate with your classmates.  

3) Contacting me - IMPORTANT - the best way to contact me for immediate assistance can be found in the syllabus, my phone number (call or text) & email. Contact made on weekdays will result in the best response time. On the weekends, I am traveling and out with my family. I may not have resources and material at my disposal to provide immediate assistance. Please, don't hesitate to contact me. 

Best of luck to everyone!
