English 127 (DEA, DEB) makes use of both Angel and an external instructional website.  Click on the links to reach the course homepage and Angel, respectively.    (The E127 page will be revised by the first day of the new quarter, but you can still get an idea of the course format.)

For Fall 2010, go to Angel Learning if you are registered for English 115 - Introduction to Novels.  You can find instructions if you are new to Angel (click on link).

Emailing the Instructor

Because I am teaching internet classes and because I am bombarded by emails from a variety of sources, please help me keep track of emails from you by following this protocol:  In the subject line of the email message, include the course number, your full name, and an informative and commonsensical title.  Hopefully, this way your email will not be lost in the flood of messages I receive.  Here is an example:

Subject line:  E127 or E115/John Smith - Question on Paper #1
(Please do not send messages with blank subject lines!)
