    David Goodrich has notified me that I am an instructor for EDU503_FA09_E1. It’s not listed as one of my courses. I need to learn to navigate through the shell – when I can access it. I have gone to this site: http:/sites.arbor.edu/oat/blackboard-9/ and see tutorials for ’students’ — I think.
    I know its the weekend and maybe you aren’t available. When you receive this, if you can help, please give me some direction if possible.
    I believe my class begins on the 24th.
    Thank you
