Course Textbook
EDUC 438/638: Learning Technologies Across the Curricula
This course uses online resources that are freely downloadable by registered students. You are not required, therefore, to purchase a printed textbook. During the course, depending on specific technologies you decide to use when working on your project, it is possible that you may want to purchase a book or two, but that will be totally up to you. Most students will be able to find what they need here online without needing to purchase a printed book. Specific readings are assigned in each course module.
Computers
To complete the hands-on computer assignments, each student will need access to a multimedia computer (Windows, Macintosh, laptop or tablet) that is connected to the Internet via the latest version of either Firefox, Safari, or Chrome.
Computer Accounts
Every University of Delaware student automatically receives an e-mail account. You should visit www.udel.edu/network to manage your password, username, and quotas.
Computer Sites
All students registered in this class have the option of using the multimedia PCs and Macs in the campus computing sites. Use sites.udel.edu/computingsites to link to the general access site schedule. Please note that the use of the campus computing sites is totally optional in this course. If you have your own computer and Internet connection, you may never need to use the campus computing sites.
E-mail Addresses
Every student in this class must have an e-mail address on the Internet and read e-mail regularly. If you're enrolled in a University of Delaware course, and you do not have an e-mail account yet, go to the help center and follow the e-mail link for detailed instructions on how to activate your e-mail account. During the course, when your instructor sends e-mail to the class, the messages will go to your UD mail address. If you do not read your UD mail regularly, you should go to www.udel.edu/network and follow the instructions to forward your e-mail to your preferred e-mail address.
