Hi everyone –

I am currently above a very black sea, about halfway to Greece; the closest thing to our flight trajectory is Keflavik. But amazingly, wifi has been working great! So I’ve been able to do some things:

• I found and edited last year’s heart I video so it just shows you slides 22-38 (the part we were scheduled to finish yesterday in lecture) (now on our schedule page)
• I posted last year’s heart II video (also now on our schedule page)
• I created a Mock Exam in Canvas. It’s connected to Honorlock, and the settings are adjusted for “remote proctoring” which is the same settings we’ll be using for our exam on September 30. You can take this quiz any time you want, as many times as you want, and I’m leaving it open until the end of the day on 9/30. So just check it out at your convenience, and if you run into problems, let me know.

Next up is writing quiz 1. Doing that right after I post this.

Since this is taking longer than I thought (everything seems to take longer than I think it will!) I’m giong to extend the deadline to Tuesday at 11:59 pm. It wll be an open-book, open-note, talk to each other kind of quiz, just like we will be doing in class. I’m going to use Canvas to create this quiz, despite its artless and depressing design, because it’s probably good to have some continuity.

Note: If you have accommodations, could you send me a quick email reminding me of any timing accommodations you have (even if you’ve already emailed me)? I just want to be sure I capture everyone with accommmodations. If I go looking back through my email, I’ll likely miss someone. THANK YOU!

I’ll let you know when Quiz 1 is posted.

Still over total darkness but apparently we’re getting close to Dublin!
