This is the homepage for Section 5465, the online Meteorology Lab (a.k.a. "Meteorology 10L", "Metro 10L").
The prerequisite to take the lab is Introduction To Meteorology (course completion or current enrollment).
I teach two sections of online Introduction To Meteorology (a.k.a Meteorology 10, or Metro 10), Section 5182, and Section 5463. If you are interested in those classes, please go to their homepages.
The Meteorology Lab is taught entirely online. Your independent reading and studying, class dialogue via email and the class message list, plus additional online work and testing, eliminates the need for in-person meetings.
THE CLASS IS CLOSED AND I AM ON THE WAIT LIST--WILL I BE ALLOWED INTO THE CLASS? If you are on the wait list, you'll probably get into the class (although there is no guarantee). Students who are on the official school wait list are moved into the class should positions become available. If an enrolled student were to drop the class (or were to fail to check in during the first three days of the semester), then the first person on the wait list would be moved into the class, and the rest would be moved up the wait list. In accordance with school policy, I do not keep private wait lists from which students are placed into my classes.
THE CLASS IS CLOSED AND I AM NOT ON THE WAIT LIST--WILL I BE ABLE TO GET INTO THE CLASS? If the class is closed, you should check back to see if a position on the wait list opens up, and you should email me to let me know that you would like the join the class. After the first week of the semester, if all students are admitted from the wait list, you might be able to join.
WELCOME
So you want to learn how weather forecasts are made? Well, you've come to the right place to learn about weather forecasting--welcome to the Meteorology Lab!
Who succeeds in the lab? People who are disciplined and motivated will succeed in Meteorology 10L, because these qualities allow students to better assume a greater degree of responsibility for their own learning. Successful students feel at home navigating on the internet. You must also be a self-starter who feels confident about reading to learn and who is comfortable working independently. In a nutshell, this course is designed for the highly motivated, computer-savvy, and self-directed student who wishes to pursue a quality education.
Will I be isolated from other students and my instructor? No. Meteorology 10L is a completely online learning experience. But before you have second thoughts about whether you can thrive in the course's virtual classroom, rest assured that you'll likely have more interaction with me than you would have with an instructor in a traditional, large-lecture classroom setting. Granted, you won't necessarily meet with me face to face, but there is a class discussion board, and that's only the tip of the iceberg. The class will be surprisingly social, with students interacting and helping one another on the discussion board. You can also attend virtual office hours in our class chat room. For private matters, students have easy access to me via email. So, as you can see, there will be ample opportunity for you to personally interact in Meteorology 10L.
Are you ready to take an online class? Do not sign up for this class until you have taken the self assessment quiz, located at http://online.santarosa.edu/catedocs/assessment.html (you can also access the quiz from the CATE homepage). Your test results from this quiz will only be seen by you, no instructor will review it. After you have taken the quiz, you will receive computer feedback assessing your readiness for an online class. It is possible that the computer will suggest certain areas you need to master before you take an online class.
Are your expectations about taking an online class realistic? This class will take a lot of your time, and it is not easy. Please take a look at "What you need, and what you need to know, to take an online course at SRJC", located at http://online.santarosa.edu/catedocs/reqs.html.

Email correspondence is an important part of our class, so make sure you can receive all class email. It is your responsibility to: maintain an active email account (if need be, clear it out so it does not clog up and bounce emails back), make sure class emails are not being caught in your spam filter, and notify me immediately if you change email accounts.
3. Attend class: at SRJC, students are expected to attend all sessions of the courses in which they are enrolled. In this class, that means you should check your email and the course webpages regulary. In particular, you should go to the weekly "Instructor's Notes" to review my notes for you, and to obtain the weekly assignments. It is very important that you look at the "Schedule" to ascertain assignment deadlines (click on the "Schedule" icon on the Navigation Bar at the top of this page). You should consider the Section Homepage, the Instructor's Notes, the Schedule, and email together to be our virtual classroom. Checking all of these frequently is tantamount to going to class.
- Excessive Absences: school policy states "[a] student may be dropped from any class when that student's absences exceed ten percent (10%) of the total hours of class time." For purposes of this class, if you do not log into class for two weeks or more, you will be considered to be excessively absent, and you might be dropped from the class.
4. Turn in the weekly online examinations, including the Midterm and Final Examinations.
6. Complete course work on time: ascertain assignment due dates by checking the Schedule. You are expected to turn in your assignments on time. You are encouraged to submit your work well in advance of deadlines, in order to allow yourself time to solve any problems caused by computer glitches, downtime, or any other technological inconveniences. - Extensions of time: if you want an extension of time to complete an assignment, contact me before the assignment deadline. Although I reserve the right to grant an extension of time, I do not routinely grant extensions of time to complete assignments. - Late Work Policy: if you turn your work in late (that is, after the assignment deadline has passed), you will not receive full credit. Instead, you will be docked 10% for late work.
7. Academic Integrity: all written work is to be original. Pagiarism of any kind will result in a failing grade on that assignment. Students who plagiarize or cheat may be suspended and referred to the Vice President of Student Services for discipline sanction, in cases of egregious violation. Please read the college policy/procedure on academic integrity at: http://www.santarosa.edu/polman/3acadpro/3.11P.pdf
8. Student Conduct Standards: students are expected to conduct themselves in a manner which reflects an awareness of common standards of decency and the rights of others. All students are expected to know the Student Conduct Code (http://www.santarosa.edu/for_students/rules- regulations/scs/section1.shtml) and adhere to it in this class. Students who violate the code may be suspended from two (2) classes and referred to Vice President of Student Services for discipline.
9. Contact me: if you have questions or concerns, please send me an email (use the "EMail" icon on the Navigation Bar at the top of this page). You'll likely get the fastest response from me if you send an email (private messages to me on class message lists can get buried!).

11. Communicate With Classmates: if you have course-related comments that you think will be of interest to your classmates, you can post on the class Message List. To send a message through the class Message List, click on the "Mailing List" icon on the Navigation Bar at the top of this page).
12. No "Spam": please keep all of your emails to our class list serve directly related to class assignments. "Spam" is unsolicited email, and it is not permitted. If you send spam, you could be dropped from the course. The following, which are often associated with spam, are also prohibited: chain letters, pyramid schemes, "Get Rich Quick" or "Make Money Fast" schemes, advertising, or using or promoting software designed to harvest email addresses.
13. Dropping The Class: if you stop attending class, it is your responsibility to drop the class. If you don't, you risk getting an "F" for the semester.
GETTING STARTED
Explore The Webpages: be sure to read through this entire Section homepage, as it will explain the lab in some detail.
Next, turn your attention to the top of this Homepage, where you will find the "Navigation Bar". Each of the graphic icon buttons on the Navigation Bar links you to an important part of the lab. Be sure to become familiar with each of these icon buttons, they will help you click to success.
One of the most important icon buttons is that which is marked "Schedule." If you click on this icon, you will jump to the Course Schedule for the lab. Here you will find a link for each week, and information on when each week's lab exercise is due. The link for each week will take you to that week's "Instructor's Notes"; for the lab, which will tell you what is expected from you each week, as well as provide a link to each weekly lab exercise. The link to each week's lab exercise becomes active on Monday of the week.
The best way to access the Instructor's Notes, is by clicking on the Instructor's Notes icon on the Navigation Bar. In many ways, the Instructor's Notes link is the key to understanding each week's lab requirements---become very familiar with the Schedule and the Instructor's Notes links!
Take some time right now, and explore where each button takes you.

Recommended but not required: It is possible as you take this course, that you might like to refer to topics in the textbook "Essentials of Meteorology" by Donald Ahrens. Essentials of Meteorology is the textbook for Meteorology 10, which some students are taking concurrently with this lab.
Recommended but not required: "How to Lie With Statistics" by Darrell Huff, 1954.
CLASS PARTICIPATION
CLASS MESSAGE LISTS To send a message to the entire class, click on "Mailing List" on the Navigation Bar. You'll land in a router page with links to the class mailing lists. When you send a message via a mailing list, your message will land in everyone's mailbox, as well as in the Class Archive.
You will not earn extra points by sending a message through the class mailing lists.
CHAT ROOM The Chat Room serves as a Student/Faculty Lounge, a gathering place for students and for me to meet and greet. The Chat Room always will be open; you can log in 24 hours a day. Throughout the weekdays, often I am available in the Chat Room (which is my online office), and, I would be happy to "chat" with you.
There are several ways to enter the class Chat Room. One way is to click on "Mailing List" on the Navigation Bar. Toward the bottom of the page, there is a link to the Chat Room.
You will not earn extra points by chatting in the class Chat Room.
TESTS AND EXAMS
1. You should complete each of the weekly lab exercises, in order to earn as many points as you can. You can find the lab exercises by clicking on the "Instructor's Notes" button on the Navigation Bar toward the top of this class's Section Home Page. Then scroll to the bottom of the Instructor's Notes for a link to that week's lab exercises. Generally, the lab exercises will be posted on the Wednesday before the lab exercises are due. Due dates for lab exercises are posted in the lab "Schedule"; generally, lab exercises are due on Monday nights at midnight. Go to the Navigation Bar at the top of the page and click on the lab "Schedule" icon, for due dates.
2. There are no lab exercises due during the holiday break week. Please go to the Instructor's Notes and the Class Schedule for details.
Important note about online exams: if you take a long time to complete the lab exercise, you could be disconnected by your ISP (Internet Service Provider) for inactivity (clicking on a "radio button" does not register as activity). Second, if you click on a lab exercise, but don't finish it, and click for it again later, you may get an entirely different lab exercise, it may not be the same.
Another important note about online lab exercises: they MUST be taken online. If you cut and paste a lab exercise and then email it to me, or if you print out an exam and mail it to me by "snail mail", it will not be counted. You would be wise to take lab exercises early enough so that if you encounter computer problems, you will have enough time to resolve them. If you have a computer problem, please borrow a friend's computer, or go to one of the computer labs on the main SRJC campus or at the Petaluma Campus to take the exam.
GRADING
Your grade will be based on the accumulation of points from the lab exercises using the grading scale below. In addition, extra credit from submitting "Weather Suggestions", will be added to the final grade of those students that qualify.
As the course progresses, you can access your lab exercise scores, as well as the actual questions and answers from lab exercises, in order to help you with your studies. Immediately after you submit a lab exercise, you will see your score on the screen. Here's how you can find your score in the Gradebook: click on the Gradebook icon on the Navigation Bar, go to the Gradebook for your Section, and log on with your Username and Password. After the Gradebook loads, you will see a spreadsheet with assignments and scores for all students (students are identified by the last four digits of their student ID numbers).
Here's how you can view the questions and answers from your lab exercises: if you will scroll down past the Gradebook's spreadsheet, you will find your individual lab exercises, including the questions, the answers you gave, and the correct answer (if different from your answer). Lab exercise results are available only after a lab exercise's due date. For instance, if a lab exercise was due on, say, January 27, the Gradebook would be configured to show questions, answers, correct answers, etc. beginning on the 29th.
Here is how final grades for the course will be calculated:
1. There will be 17 weekly lab exercises. Each lab exercise is worth 10 points, therefore the maximum possible points for the lab is 170.
2. You can earn up to 6 extra credit points by submitting Weather Suggestions.
3. I reserve the right to award additional points to a student who, in my sole subjective discretion, has contributed to the class over and above what is required or requested. Contributions which, in my subjective judgment, merit additional points, could help you if you are "on the borderline" between two grades. However, you should not expect to be awarded such points, even if you think your contributions are equal to or greater than another student whose contributions are the basis for my awarding additional points. In addition, you should not expect to be awarded additional points, even if your final number of points falls just short of the next-highest grade.
Maximum Semester Point Total = 170 points
Final course grades in the lab are awarded according to the following scale: A = 153 to 170 (90-100%) B = 136 to 152 (80-89%) C = 119 to 135 (70-79%) D = 102 to 118 (60-69%) F = 000 to 101 (<60%)
A TYPICAL WEEK IN THE LIFE OF AN ONLINE STUDENT
Just what exactly goes on in the online Meteorology Lab? This is what you might be asked to do in an typical week:
1. Go the lab Schedule by clicking on the Schedule Icon on the Navigation Bar on the top of the page, and make sure you are staying current with the lab exercises. The lab Schedule contains the due dates for lab exercises for each week.
2. Click on the Instructor's Notes icon on the Navigation Bar on the top of the lab web pages. Identify the appropriate week. You will notice that there are links under that week that guide you to my lab notes. My lab lecture notes will be available to you beginning on Monday of the week; links to topics are always available to you. A. Toward the top of the lecture notes, there is a section entitled "What You Need To Do This Week". Here, you will see instructions. B. Read the online lab lecture notes, and go to any links embedded the notes.
3. Extra Help A. If you have a question about the materials, be sure to send me an email, and I'll get back to you within 24 hours. My student consultations are by email; although sometimes they take place in the class Chat Room. B. You are welcome to log in to the class Chat Room; it's available to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to chat with whoever happens to drop by--maybe your fellow students, maybe me. You can access the Chat Room by clicking on the "Instructor's Notes" icon, and scrolling toward the bottom of the page.
4. Weekly Lab Exercise. A. Finally, when you are ready, use the link at the bottom of the week's lab "Instructor's Notes" page to take that week's online lab exercise. The lab exercise will be available to you beginning on Wednesday of the week. Immediately after you submit your lab exercise, the computer will indicate your score. (Note: there are several weeks during the semester where there is no lab exercise: during the break, and during finals week.) B. Your lab exercise score will again be available to you beginning on the Wednesday after you take your quiz; at that time, the questions and answers from your quiz will also be available. You can check for this information by clicking on the "Gradebook" icon on the Navigation Bar.
5. Feedback If you'd like to let me know what is working and what isn't working for you at any point, please email me so I can improve the class. I'd appreciate it if you'd put your positive comments into a course evaluation form (you can find the link at the bottom of any of the Instructor's Notes pages).
Obviously not every week will be conducted in precisely this manner, but that's a pretty good outline for a typical week in the lab.
EXTRA CREDIT: WEATHER SUGGESTIONS
You can earn up to 6 extra credit points in the Weather Analysis Forecasting & Climatology Lab by submitting Weather Suggestions during Finals Week.
