The institutionally provided Learning Management System (LMS) will be used for assignments, projects, exams, and other coursework. Also, announcements will be posted on the LMS from time to time. Be sure to check the LMS often. You are encouraged to use the messaging function within the LMS to contact me as well.
I also use my institutional email account. This should be the primary method used to communicate with me outside of class.1HINT: If you are going to contact me about submitting a late assignment or anything of that nature, you would be wise to attach the assignment to the message. Don’t email me asking if you can send me your late work. My policies state that I do not accept late work, but if you are going to request an exception, you stand a better chance of receiving such an allowance if you submit the work along with your request. This shows you actually have the work done and are not simply stalling for even more time. I make a concerted effort to read and respond to e-mail within 24 hours of receiving your message. You also may contact me via any other electronic or social media profile that I have specifically shared with you, but do not expect, necessarily, to receive a response unless it is through the institutional e-mail or an LMS direct message (unless otherwise specified).
Additionally, my website (www.toddvogts.com) exists as a resource for you. It has my semester schedule, copies of all my syllabi (in their most up-to-date format), various resources and materials, a form to schedule a meeting with me, and much more. Different assignments may reference files on this site, so be aware that it exists and contains information pertinent to my courses.
