Lesson Content
You will have weekly lesson content that will help prepare you for your exercises. At the end of each exercise you will give feedback to each other. The weekly lesson content will also have information on your assignments as well as information about the weekly quizzes. At the end of the week, your instructor will grade your assignments and submit feedback to you on I-learn.
Note: The weekly lesson content will always open in a separate window. You can toggle back and forth between the I-learn course and the weekly lesson content.
