ACC 2510
    Fall 2007 Case Briefs
      Case Briefs are completed on the Discussion Board function within the Communication area of the Blackboard site for this course, bit by bit over a period of several weeks.  For each assigned case, the student starts a series of new threads for her or his case brief week by week, as required in the various Discussion Board instructions of the Syllabus over the next several weeks.

      How to Enter the Locations for Your Entry of Your Case Brief.  On the Blackboard system, click on the Communication button and then on the Discussion Board link.  Locate your assigned case (see below), and then click on the case name as shown on the Discussion Board.  Once you have clicked on the case name, if there are already entries submitted for your case, you might want to read them (but do not "reply" to them, and do not copy or draw from them).  When you are ready to submit your Locations information, click on the  button.  At the Subject line, enter "Locations from" and then enter your name.  In the body of the Message box, type (or copy from your word processor) your locations information -- in your own words.  When you are finished, hit the  button.
