M03 Overview: Communication

Course & Module Objectives

In this module, you will review key ideas from Modules 1 and 2.  You will also participate in your second discussion board.  Remember this is where we get a real chance to interact with each other. One freedom that can never be taken away from us is our attitude.

Feel free to post any questions of a general nature in the Questions forum of the Discussion Board so everyone can see the answers and benefit from the responses.  This is not an assignment but rather an area of assistance.  You may have some answers and be able to help each other here as well.  Please make sure to check your Ivy Tech email on a regular basis.  To send messages within IvyLearn, just click the “Inbox” tab on the left side of the screen.  Once there you will choose the course, which is up on the top left of the screen.  Then towards the right of the screen you will see an icon to compose your message (square page with a pencil in it).  Your messages within IvyLearn should be connected with your Ivy Tech email.  

Wherever you go, no matter what the weather, always bring your own sunshine.” -Anthony J. D’Angelo, The College Blue Book
