Learners will need the following materials for this class:

1. Note Taking Materials (pen & paper, tablet & stylus, etc.)
2. Internet Browser (Explorer, Safari, Chrome, etc.)
3. Calculator (physical or digital)
4. Digital Folder (Optional: to save copies of the Unit Reviews)

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Google Slides
Google Forms

PERSONAL INFORMATION: The first question of every Knowledge Check asks learners to share their first names. This refers to the name listed in the class roster. Their names will be used to identify their work so that I can provide the best feedback to the correct learner and add their grades to the grade book. In compliance with Outschool's Safety Policy, the sharing of any personal information in the classroom is strictly prohibited. 

GRADES: Learners' grades are recorded and shared only with the learner and guardians of that learner via private message. 

THIRD-PARTY APPLICATIONS: This class uses CK-12 for its learning materials. Important information from these lessons will be shared at the end of the week in the form of a Google Slides link. The link is for View-Only to comply with Outschool's Safety Policy and does not require the learner's Google login information. Google Forms is used for the Knowledge Checks that coincide with each lesson. These do not collect learners' private information but do ask the learner for their first name for grading and feedback purposes.

EMERGENCIES: Despite our best efforts, emergencies do happen and can result in changes to the class schedule. I always plan to have my classes as they are scheduled. In the event that I have an emergency (loss of power/internet), I ask that learners log into the Zoom meeting and remain in the meeting for 10 minutes so that Outschool can mark their attendance. There is a one-week gap between my classes for the purpose of adding make-up sessions during the same time. In addition to this gap, there are "work days" and a full week of review included in the schedule to ensure the class has enough time to cover each lesson.

In the event that your learner cannot attend a class, please reach out so I can adjust the assignments' due dates. Recordings of the meetings will be shared with the classroom. Learners are expected to watch the video lessons for the classes they miss and complete a different Knowledge Check for their participation points. 

REFUND POLICY: This class has a standard refund policy: "Full refund until a week in advance, or within 24 hours of purchase (until class starts)."
