hello & welcome

Hello, and welcome to the course!

I'm looking forward to working with Santa Maria High School students again this year.  You'll hear me say this a lot, but it's true: time moves fast and we have to stay ahead of the game. Before you know it, the holidays will be here, and then it will be spring, and we'll be saying goodbye in June...

This is the place where you will get all the information you need for the course. We will also be using it as a one-stop online stop for collaborative opportunities, additional online tools, and asynchronous idea-sharing in general.

Please bookmark this URL and follow the blog so that you will receive updates automatically instead of having to check back all the time.  If you don't know your way around blogs or the internet, have no fear-- we will cover what you need when we meet in class, and you also probably have friends/relatives who can help.*  (*Working with each other to do a task and achieve shared goals is the definition of collaborationCollaboration is not cheating.  And, naturally, the course will also require you to demonstrate your individual mastery of close reading, literary criticism, and written organization and expression, so don't even think about cheating when you know it's cheating.)

Your senior project is YOU and it begins now.  If you see this before school starts, please feel free to post any questions or comments here or email me at dpreston.learning@gmail.com.  Sapere aude.  I look forward to meeting you!

Best,
Dr. Preston
