Students will receive assignments/worksheets weekly that will reinforce what was learned in class.  The worksheets will be completed on Nearpod using a link that I will provide.  The students will NOT be required to login to Nearpod.  The assignments/worksheets will provide them with instant feedback on their performance.  I will receive a report of their performance once it is completed on the website.  If there are parts of the assignments in which students are having trouble it will be reviewed during the next class.  We will be completing some optional labs in class, but some weeks the students will have optional labs that they can complete at home.  All of these assignments will be used to reinforce what the students learned in class.
授業以外に週あたり 0 - 1 時間の学習が期待されます
