INST 154: Apollo at 50
Spring 2020
Online Class Session 15
Must be Completed by Tuesday March 31 at 6:15 PM

This is our first online class session of the semester. After completing the introductory video and the reading you can complete the other requirements in any order, but the recommended order is to first take the reading quiz, then watch the lecture video, and then contribute to the discussion board. You must complete all parts of this by 6:15 PM on the date listed for this class session in the schedule.

Team Project Status Report 2

Please don't forget that one member of your project team should upload a team project status report by 6:15 PM on March 31!

Intro Video

Watch this first! You can watch either one (they are the same). Note that the office hours on the Web page shown in the intro video were wrong: the correct office hours are what I describe in the intro video, which are correctly shown on the current course description Web page.

Readings

As has been the case all semester, each student is assigned one reading for every class. Sometimes the "reading" is actually a video. Your assigned reading is based on your student number at your table (if you do not know your student number, you can find it on the table roster on the ELMS home page). You must do this before doing anything else for this class session.

Reading Quiz

This is a one-question open book quiz. Answer the one question only for the reading (or video) that you were assigned (it will ask you to confirm that you don't wish to answer the other questions; say yes). You can only take this quiz once, and you must complete it within 15 minutes of starting it. You can only take this quiz once.

Lecture Video

This is a Panopto video of the lecture on this topic from Fall 2019 that you should watch. If you need to divert your attention, you should pause the video. Note that the lecture videos that were recorded in the classroom are recorded on only one of the two stereo channels, so they may be easier to listen to without a headset, or with the (windows) Ease of Use settings set to mono audio.

Discussion Questions

These are the two questions that you should contribute to answering on your table's discussion board [login required] (if you don't know your table number, see the list on our classes ELMS home page). The goal here is to contribute to the discussion, not just to offer your own answer, so craft your responses in the context of any answers that are already there. Indicate with the question number which parts of your contribution refer to each question. You may also more generally comment on the topic of the session if you like. Note that you will only get credit for original contributions that don't repeat (or simply agree or disagree) with comments previously posted on the same questions. If you have questions about any of the content of this session (e.g., the readings or the lecture) you can also include your questions to us on your table's discussion board and we'll answer them there during our regular class times (which is when we expect to be reading your discussion board posts). You can, of course, also send us email with any questions any time and we'll get back to you more quickly than we will to questions left on your discussion board.
Below here you will find other materials that you might find useful.
