Footnote:
BIOL 045.-01Z:This class has some scheduled meetings. Students must be available to take the online exams while on Zoom. Online exams are proctored exams. Students must be on Zoom with video enabled, on specific days with a choice of 2 or 3 times. Check Anna Miller's DeAnza website for what those dates and times are. You must be available to take the exams then, and not on other dates or times. Students can log in anytime to do the required weekly course work. Students must have access to a computer, the internet and an individual email address. We recommend a laptop or desktop computer to successfully complete the course; a tablet or phone may not be adequate for all assignments and tests.
