The Mode of Instruction for this class is "Hybrid," which means the class meets fewer times in a classroom than an "In Person" class, and then you do the remaining work for the class online. You should attend the first scheduled class meeting to find out all the remaining scheduled meeting dates for your section.

If this is your first hybrid course, then you should enroll in How to Succeed in an Online Course. This is a free course that will give you tips and tricks for online learning along with guides to using Blackboard.
