Your Responsibilities for Intercultural Communication

You are responsible for checking in to this webpage at least once or twice a week once the course begins, in order to get the latest announcements as well as to complete assignments and exercises for the class.

You are also responsible for having a good connection, a reliable computer and access to the web in order to take this class.

Not being able to log in will not be an acceptable excuse for late work or missed chats.

You will need the basic skills to follow online instructions and navigate the websites we use. If you are doubtful that you have these skills, please try and use the Blackboard link on the main page to see if you are comfortable with it.

If you are not comfortable using Blackboard, following online instructions or do not have an adequate connection, I recommend you consider alternatives to this course as I will not be able to provide you with training in computer skills during this course.

Finally... remember that you will get as much out of this course as you put into it. This course, the film and the readings will challenge you. If you do all the readings and assignments with diligence, and an open mind, I hope you will find that you are engaging with some of potentially transformative ideas and issues to do with culture and communication.
