As well as the assigned work, I would like to make available for you a SharePoint site where you can communicate with fellow students about your DFW. Further instructions will be sent through email.
Please email ( Lorraine Bruce ) me early in the quarter to secure your first choice of an exit interview time scheduled for either December 4th or December 5th. Distance students will conduct this interview by telephone at a scheduled time during that day.
Please use the ISchool's DFW Forms webpage as a guide for these assignments.
