Hi Everyone!
How are you all? Okay, I've got a few moments to update you now!
My UMPI student ID card was printed and mailed out today. I originally posted instructions to e-mail Amy, but that is not correct. You just e-mail the IT Department, which is help@umpi.edu. Include your ID Form, and your Photo. You can follow the progress, and they e-mail you an alert when there is a change to your IT request. I put in the request Wednesday, and so it took 2 days.
Sophia:
Q: What if I enroll in a class, and try a quiz to see how the class is, but then decide it's awful.
Can I drop a course on Sophia, without it reflecting 'started and dropped' on my Sophia Transcript? I don't want a bunch of sloppiness on there, nor do I want to explain myself that I was just testing the waters.
Q: On Sophia, if I have a 98% before a Touchstone halfway through the class, and get only a 70 on one of two Touchstones, do they impact the overall grade a lot? How much is it worth? Like on the Unit Exams we know those questions are weighted 3x. Well, the reason I ask is because I just submitted a Touchstone. I was not able to stick to the instructions, precisely, because my company ended up having 3 groups instead of 1 group for a certain thing. This meant, I simply could not explain correctly with just "1 to 2 sentences" and instead had lengthier answers. I did address this upfront, let them know what company I chose, and that my answers would be longer due to having 3 groups, versus 1 group for each question. The good thing to note is that my submittal is easy to navigate, so even though longer, it should read very organized and efficiently.
Visual Communications (Sophia) Satisfying 2D
This is a solid YES! The transcript department put it under electives when it came in, and I e-mailed Jessica requesting her to apply it to 2D.
I hope you all have a great weekend!!
