    Attendance - Attendance will be counted when students logon to CANVAS and Zoom sessions during their assigned period.

    Communication/Online Classroom - Communication and online engagement will primarily be through student email and CANVAS and supported with Zoom webinars and Turning Point interactive PowerPoints.

    Online Classroom conduct: 

    - Conduct in the virtual classroom is no different than the classroom itself.

    - During Zoom sessions cadets will maintain discipline, Zoom does have a feature which allows me to mute all participants, but I feel this may take away from the discussion.  If a Cadet does have a question, they should raise their hand just like in a classroom environment. 

    - RESPECT for others is stressed, both as a fundamental principle of good leadership and as a requirement in the classroom.  In discussions, challenge the idea, not the person.
