Work Folder
We’ve created a work folder for the course that all students can access, both to view and edit. You should use this folder to create project-related folders, documents, and presentations – in fact, we encourage you to do all of your collaborative work here so that it’s all in one place. Just find ways to keep it organized and be respectful of other people’s work. You’ll need to be logged in using your NCState ID to use the work folder.
The ChallengesTopics folder contains subfolders for each of your learning topics – that is where you should create and deliver all of your work.
Readings
Readings are stored in this Articles Folder on Google Drive – you must be logged in with your NC State University ID to gain access. When we give you a reading assignment, we will provide an article citation and the name of the folder it’s in. Unless otherwise noted, the article files are named by author, year, and some descriptive information (e.g., Jones&Smith2009_PopulationViability.pdf).
Reading Guides
Most class readings have an associated reading guide.
