Welcome to Module 12! The list below outlines what you need to do for this module. 

  • Read Chapter 12 in American Government (The Presidency) and Chapter 4 from California Politics.
  • Check out the supplemental resources available to you on the next Module page.
  • Then read the Module 12 prompt and respond with your initial post (your answer to my prompt) by 11:59pm on Friday. Post two follow ups to classmates by the Sunday 11:59pm deadline. 
  • Complete Module 12 Quiz by Sunday, 11:59pm

By completing this week's reading and assignments, you will achieve the following Course Objectives:

  • State how the legislative, judicial, and executive branches of the Federal system are organized, including the powers that reside in each.

Any general questions should be posted to the Q&A Forum. If you message me a general question, I will tell you to post to the Q&A Forum. By asking a question and receiving an answer (either from me or your classmates) in this forum, you will help other students who have the same question-just like in a face-to-face class!

If you have a personal concern or private matter to discuss now or at any time throughout the semester, you must message me via the Canvas Inbox. The surest way to get a quick response from me regarding a private matter is the Canvas Inbox. I do not check my COD email as frequently as I do Canvas and thus your email will likely get lost among several others. Canvas is also the best way to send secure messages that contain personal/private information.
