Time to Develop

Now that a group of my students in the SSY 260 class are connecting with new students in Marianne's Freshman Seminar class, I hope that this project will be helpful to as many students as possible. I think that having this type of contact can be useful but it needs time to develop. The group in the SSY 260 class really want to help out but can only be helpful if the new students have questions or concerns. I think we need to find additional ways for new students to benefit from this type of support.

Hope Foe The Best -Steve

Last week one of the groups in my SSY 260 class decided to participate in this project. We are working with new students in Marianne's FSM. I was able to visit the FSM class to encourage the students to use the Blog for information. We had some trouble logging onto the Blog set up by the FSM students. This week we will try again. My students will help guide the new students and try to answer questions or address concerns. We hope that the new students will be able to benefit from the experience of 2nd year students.
