Before contacting me, please check the VCC (Virtual Conference Center). Whenever a student has a question, it is likely to be shared by other students, and so I edit and post all your emails, with my answers, in the VCC."
Student Internet Access
New students are required to obtain an account on the student unix computer DANA. DANA gives NAU students, who agree to abide by proper ethical standards, access to the internet including electronic mail, the Cline library on-line catalogue, world wide web home pages (httpd), and usenet news.
Accessing these sort of Internet services requires establishing an electronic identity (essentially an electronic mail address). This can be done by acquiring a computer account on the DANA machine. Any currently enrolled student, who is willing to use these resources responsibly, is permitted an account on the DANA machine.
If you are an Arizona Resident, NAU has several local modem pools throughout the state. If these modem numbers are not local to your area, you should select a local internet service provider (ISP) to avoid long distance phone charges.
You are responsible for paying any phone charges (long distance and local) and ISP fees incurred as a result of taking this web course.
Group Communication
Group work is an important part of Health Care Ethics, "Health Care Ethics".
Group Communication in this course is accomplished via the NAU Virtual Conference Center
