  5. Communicating Your Professors • Read your syllabus or look at your D2L to find out the best way to communicate with your professor. • If you are having trouble in the class, see the professor during their designated office hours • If you are having trouble with a particular concept, don’t use the word “you”. • Don’t ask Mom and Dad to fight your battles for you. • Don’t wait till the last hour to ask for help or ask a question….you are not the ONLY student they work with.

  6. Working in Groups • Establish how you will communicate with one another. • Show up on time. • Share the load! • Don’t monopolize the group. • Be tactful with criticism (i.e., don’t make another student feel dumb if you don’t like an idea. Instead, offer a polite suggestion.) • If someone in the group is not doing their part, talk it out with the group. You may need to talk with the professor.
