Your timely completion of activities is critical to your success in this course as in any course for that matter. Note that this is not a self-paced course and as a result you need to dedicate portions of your limited precious time to work on your readings, research, and all graded activities. Every activity will differ in scope so make sure you review each activity in advance so you can block enough time or days to complete every one of them.
