  2. Exercise Overview • Keep in mind that this is a site still in early development and we would like feedback • The site is being designed to be used online with no instructor - but we have ways to go. • Not all of the instructional links work yet • For face-to-face classes, I will provide the "how to" instructions for the exercise (To ESES Overview htmlTo ESES Overview ppt ) Go to http://hss-1.us/1 or http://hss-1.us/1.htm 2
