>> Orientation video three, schedule and homework assignment.
In this video, we're going to look at the course due dates.
The due dates for all assignments can be found in one of two places.
The first place is the schedule, which looks like a calendar.
The second place is the homework assignments page,
which gives you more detail about each assignment.
Very important.
Both of these sources may be updated throughout the quarter.
Assignments may be added throughout the quarter.
So, we're on the Accounting 1A online fall 2019 page of cpascott.com website.
Let's start out by clicking on the schedule.
The schedule is laid out in calendar format and shows due dates in bold print.
All the chapter homework assignments to be done in Cengage are shown on this schedule
as of the beginning of the quarter.
The interim online midterm and comprehensive on-campus midterm exams are shown as well.
Other assignments and tasks will be added throughout the quarter.
In general, Cengage assignments are highlighted in yellow
and Canvas assignments are highlighted in green.
Please pay particular attention to the assignments due during the first week.
The Canvas orientation quiz must be completed by Friday night, 11:55 PM.
Very important.
Students who do not complete the quiz will be dropped from the course.
This quiz is based on your understanding of the course syllabus.
There is no time limit for this quiz as long as you complete it by Friday night at 11:55 PM.
This assignment is worth five homework points.
Also, during the first week, there is a second introductory quiz that must be taken on Cengage.
This quiz must be completed by Sunday night, 11:55 PM.
This is a timed quiz.
You will have 30 minutes to answer 10 or more simple,
10 of the more simple multiple-choice questions from chapter one of the Accounting 1A textbook.
This assignment is worth five homework points.
This quiz is designed to give you experience taking Cengage quizzes in a timed environment.
Although this introductory quiz is only worth five homework points,
other Cengage chapter quizzes will be worth 10 homework points
and are regarded as 10-point tasks.
Generally, there will be one Cengage chapter quiz for each of the first four chapters
and then one quiz for every two chapters from chapters five through eight.
Chapter nine will not be included on one of these Cengage chapter quizzes
but will be included in other exams.
These quizzes will have 10 multiple-choice questions taken from the chapters.
You can see from the schedule that a quiz will be given
on chapter one on Tuesday of the second week.
Another quiz will be given on chapter two on Tuesday of the third week.
The chapter three quiz will be given on Tuesday of the fourth week,
and the chapter four quiz will be given on Tuesday of the fifth week.
We will then have the online midterm at the end of the fifth week.
After the midterm, there will be one quiz for every two chapters from chapter five through 18.
The chapter five and six quiz will be on Wednesday of the eighth week.
Finally, a fourth quiz on chapter seven
and eight will be given on Tuesday of the tenth week.
Each of these quizzes must be taken within a 24-hour window.
The quiz itself must be started and completed within 30 minutes and must be finished
by 11:55 PM on the respective due date.
Mark these due dates on your own calendar because I do not usually send
out reminder notices for quizzes.
Let's go to the homework assignments page again.
This page shows the same assignments and the same due dates as the schedule; however,
this page gives you more detail about the assignment.
It also explains the basic requirements for each chapter.
For each chapter, you're expected to read the textbook for that chapter.
You should also review any pencasts or videos
that I myself created regarding the chapter material.
These pencasts and videos will be found on Canvas.
Finally, you should do the chapter homework on Cengage.
You will complete other tasks such as forum discussions on Canvas.
The publisher provides many other resources that are recommended but not required.
The publisher PowerPoints can be found on Canvas.
The Cengage website has many useful study tools.
Please investigate these and use them if they help you.
