Winter Quarter

We did not get to use this Blog much last quarter, but we will be using it this quarter. We spawned fish and will be picking those eggs over the next few weeks. I will be posting some ideas and topics that you will need to read and then respond to under the comments section. This will help you with putting ideas down as the written word and developing those skills.

I would like you to respond to the question: How are things going in the program so far? Do you like this type of work, and do you like this type of education?

Check out the Wiki that we are going to use.

I have created a wiki and we will try it and see if it will add to the class. I have a class schedule there as well. Please visit the site and see what you think. Here is the link to it. Click on the go button to go to the home page of the wiki..

You can also start to read the Safety Manual that is called "Spawn, Spat and Sprains". Just skim over the airplane and bear safety sections. It is a safety manual for the aquaculture industry.

Student Handbook

Here is the next link for you. It is the Student Handbook that we went over yesterday which has attendance, grades, forms, and other important information. It is #2 in this list. Please go over it when you have a chance and ask any questions that you may have.

Required Text Books

Here is a link to the required text books and supplies. You can print it out if you did not get one in class and pick them up when you can.

Required Text Books

I have a short video for you to watch on the text books that will be required for this quarter. Please watch it and we will go over this in class. Select any of #4 to watch, listen, or read.

First assignment

I would like you to read "The Art of Feeding Salmon" by Jed Varney who is a State Pathologist. It is located in the assignments page and the link is here.
