Online CHEM 151 reminders for week of August 28-Sept 4

Hi online CHEM 151 students!  I hope you and your families survived (or are surviving) the windstorm and all the associated outages.  I’m a little late with the update this week as I have been dealing with a large downed tree in the backyard and internet and power outages.  Here is a list of what is coming up this coming week:

Quizzes being returned:

I’ve returned your Quiz/class participation 1 surveys to you by email.  Thanks for sending them in by pdf.  If you turned it in, you got full credit 10/10 in the D2L gradebook.  Hopefully I answered your questions that you submitted on the returned surveys, if I did not answer your questions or you have additional ones please contact me.  I’m currently working through Quiz/class participation 2 (I’ve been slowed down by having internet and power issues) and will return those to you by email as I finish them.

Online Homework:

I’ve been pleased to see that several of you have been able to access the online homework and begin work.  I apologize for the email issues.  Last week I send out an updtae by email hoping to help you get loggied in to the online homework – a copy of the email is here:

Many of you have contacted me today about having not received the email containing login instructions for your CHEM 151 or Chem 152 online homework.  You were enrolled in the homework site as we indicated on Wed Aug 23, but for some reason we haven’t been able to determine the emails with login credentials were not generated and sent to you when you were enrolled.  My apologies for the confusion and difficulty this has caused.

Here are instructions that (hopefully) will allow you to access the system and get started.  Please read all the sections below.
How to reset your password and login (you can skip this step if you have been able to log in, but please read the additional information below this )
 
  1. I have had the system send a password reset email to you.  This email has been sent to your LCC Student email address (userid@mail.lcc.edu). It will NOT be sent to D2L email.   Please read this email and follow the instructions to reset your password.
  2. If you are not able to reset your password, please let me know, and if you are able, drop in at the CTE WebEx session Friday Aug 25, where CTE staff may be able to help you with additional login issues.
  3. If you are able to reset your password, go to your online homework site for your course (a link to it is on your course schedule or in D2L for in-person classes or on the right sidebar of the course website for online classes.  Links to the homework for each course are also below (click the right one for your course) and then log in using your userid(the same as you use to log into campus computers or D2L – mine is farrisb) and the password you just reset it to.
