Dan's Blogs

The following links lead to personal weblogs (or "blogs") that I maintain. These web sites have no official connection to De Anza College or my employment as a faculty member. They are not housed on college servers nor do they contain information that my student are required to read.

If you choose to click on these links you will leave my De Anza College web sites and go to personal sites that have no official connection to De Anza College.

Outside - my outdoor adventures.
Photography - my main photography site.

I also have a Flickr Gallery.

	TEST #1 - Monday, May 19. The first of our two written tests is scheduled for next Monday, May 19. This test is based entirely on the two take-home quizzes that you recently completed. In order to be well-prepared for this test your goal should be to be ready to answer the quiz questions without using notes or other resources. In other words, review those quizzes! (And ask me to clarify anything you may be confused about.)

	Intro Class Quiz 2 is Due on Monday. The second take-home quiz for the Intro to Electronic Music class is due on Monday, May 12 at the start of class. Go to the Quizzes page (link in the sidebar) and print it out right away.
