I am looking forward to this class immensely! You will use this website primarily to access assignments, updates, homework, class activities, documents, links, videos, sound clips, and make comments.
The “ECC” page reports assignments of the day, updates, and homework, while the “Downloadable Documents” and “Learning Links” pages contain general class documents and/or website links that can be used repeatedly.
