Welcome to Course 6920

Tech for Teachers

Fall 2007 Theme

"Mining the Internet: From Educational Resources to Virtual Communities."

ACTIVITY ONE: TTU Housekeeping!

We will cover a variety of topics in this course however we need to begin with some simple housekeeping. Our first step will be to log into the Tennessee Tech University email system so that we can access our email accounts and grade book for Tennessee Tech.

We do not suggest or ask you to use your Tennessee Tech email, however we must verify that you can log in to assure Tennessee Tech that you can access important information such as grades.

Note that pages should open in a new window so you can simply look at the pages that open and then close them when you are done to return to your class page.
