A device with a keyboard, working microphone, and a mouse. Using a laptop or computer is ideal. If using a tablet, students must be comfortable using the keyboard available on their tablet.

除了 Outschool 教室外，本課程也使用：
Nearpod
Google Docs

Students do not have to be good at typing, but should be comfortable using a mouse and a keyboard. This class does not use paper and pencil. 

No special accounts need to be created to use Google Docs. If your child does not have an email account to access Google Docs, then please notify us prior to the first class and ensure that your child has a writing program on their own device (notepad, notes, Word).

Nearpod links are shared in class using Zoom Chat and do not require a special account. Students are sent the links via Zoom chat and will login using any name they choose. The student name is not saved in Nearpod.

Each assignment will receive a written review from the instructor at least 3 days before the next class meeting. 
Students may be asked to revise their written work before the next in-person meeting. Teacher comments are placed in the document's comment section.
In some cases, the teacher may remit a short video to the student to demonstrate what changes are recommended.
The final essay will be reviewed during the final class. Students will have 3 days after the final class to make revisions to their final essay. Once the deadline has passed the instructor will provide written feedback on the content of the final essay.
