1. Go to Edmodo and log in. If you don't have an account, create one. Choose an avatar to represent you. In doing this, remember the following rules for our online work:
Do not reveal any personal information on Edmodo. No telephone numbers, addresses, or other students’ names. To check someone’s username, click on their class group (schoch12, schoch56, etc.).
Do not post photos or videos showing yourself or classmates unless the photo/video has been pre-approved by the teacher.
Keep conversations on topic. There is a proper place (group) for almost anything you’d like to share.
Use appropriate language. If you’re not sure if a word or joke is okay, then it’s not.
Refrain from posts that tease, bully, annoy, spam, or gossip about any other member.
If someone posts an inappropriate remark, kindly ask them to edit or remove it.
2. Using the group code provided in class, join our new group. Post an introduction of yourself. Who are you? What are your interests? Why did you take Physics of Astronomy?
