Registration Meeting With Monica and Amanda and Weekly Minutes and Assignment Information: POST YOUR IDEA HERE

Amanda and I have looked at our schedules and we have very conflicting schedules which make it very hard to meet with all of you. We have decided to use our class meeting for advisement next week. However, we will need to start at 11:30.

Is anyone able to meet with us during these times?

11;30-11:40
11:40-11:50
11:50-12:00

Please post on the blog ASAP if you can meet at these times and which time you want. They will be assigned to the student that requests them first. I will post on the blog the schedule we will be meeting in the class in a few days after I get a response to this.

We will still have class next week and we will be viewing a movie called, "Crash".

Remember!!!!!

Requirements for registration
• Schema of major
• Copy paste of all classes you wish to take (need at least 15 credits)
• A blocked out schedule (A visual to show where your classes fall during the day and how much time you have between classes, and to make sure your classes don’t overlap)
• Advisement will take place during our class meeting next week. There is no need to go to my office and sign up.

If you need advisement on what to take, that is fine. Please however have ideas of what you want listed.

Students that are not prepared, will not have registration.

Communication Link #3: Being Aware of How We Speak

There are several very inappropriate words that we use in our everyday speech. It is never appropriate to use them unless you are referring to the actual group of people. Using these terms to mean stupid, sick, silly and so on only makes you look uneducated and disrespectful.

Here are some that we listed in class.

-gay
-blind
-deaf
-mental
-retard


Class Discussion: What is a Bully?

-Defined what a bully is
-Defined what it means to be bullied
-Discussed Cyberbullying on social networks
-Discussed the difference between being weak and a victim
-Viewed some very tragic results from Cyberbullying
