Leverage online documentation for the various technologies presented in this course. These technologies are extensive and changing and learning how to stay abreast of the changes is an important skill to learn and take with you.
Contact and consult with Professor Patterson as often as is necessary to do well in this course. Do not wait until problems are irreparable or concerns are outdated to seek assistance. If you need assistance, ask for it. If you ask for it, you’ll get it. We are here and we want to provide assistance; it is your responsibility to ask us for it as you need it.

Accommodations:

Any student who feels he/she may need an accommodation based on the impact of a disability should contact the instructor privately to discuss his/her specific needs. Also, contact Disability Services as soon as possible to better ensure that such accommodations are implemented in a timely fashion. We are more than happy to ensure appropriate accommodations if/when the Disability Services staff directs us to do so.
