There is no quiz nor written assignment for this

Instructor's Notes. The Instructor's Notes section of the class calendar takes
the place of the standard in class lecture that would be part of a traditional
on campus presentation of this class. It is here in the Instructor's Notes
that you will find the written lectures for each chapter, and the links to
the Michigan Virtual Tours (which entail a one page written essay) and the
bi-weekly quizzes.
Students should also read the "preface"
to this text because it has some background information on the men who
have authored this text and its revised editions throughout the years.
The "preface" is a nice introduction to your text Michigan: A History of the Wolverine
State.
