 * //Intro. to Embedded Learning Course:

> //Directions from Dr. Rhodes:// Fill out a time card upon completing the course. Write in four days (choose any four dates) and at the top put CFF Course Work. Reimbursement is $85 per day for four days. Send the cards to Dr. Rhodes. Make sure you identify that the reimbursement is for the Embedded Learning Course. > Login is your email > I emailed the password to you this morning. You can change the password after you are logged in.
 * 1) Hand out course binder. The binder contains the learning guide and all articles that are required for the course. This allows you to read the articles off-line. You will still need to click on the article links within the course so the course software marks that you have read the article.
 * 2) When the Embedded Learning course is complete:
 * 1) Location for the course: [|Embedded Learning Academy]
 * 1) Intro. and Navigate the Course
 * Once logged on, click Learn. On the next screen click View in the Actions column
 * Click the Launch Course button (you may need to fill out some account information the first time)
 * Somewhere I remember being told that each learner must also complete the Orientation, so you may need to click on Launch Orientation before starting the course (we'll try it today in our meeting).
 * Let's explore as a group
 * To complete the course, you must click and read the articles/documents, participate in the online class discussions, complete activities, keep a learning log, complete Sync Point Quizzes, and complete the Culminating activity.
 * I strongly suggest you browse the Learning Guide in the course binder.
 * You are now ready to start the course. The reminder dates are only suggestions. I strongly encourage you to work ahead.

and Relaxing Holiday!
