Course Syllabus

Greetings!

My name Dr. Sherlynn Howard Byrd and I have the great pleasure of serving as your instructor in this Speech Communication course.  The successful completion of this course will bring you a few steps closer to completing your degree.  I trust that we will have a challenging and exciting 5 weeks to successfully accomplish your goals and aspirations.

Please take time to read through this greeting statement and become familiar with the organization of this online course.

Note that online classes are very different than traditional face-to-face classes in terms of how the material is presented, the nature of the interaction among class members, and the overall learning experience. This course is taught using the CANVAS Course Management System.

Syllabus and Assignments: Please review the course syllabus, assignments instructions and student expectations. Class assignments, readings, videos, handouts, etc. are posted for each Unit under the Assignment section. Please check the ASSIGNMENT section (by module) daily/ weekly to make sure you are not missing important assignments.

Please review the unit activities in the attachment.

If you have any problems accessing the canvas system, please go to the HELP function to access the feature which includes handbooks, instructions and videos.
