Dear XXX,
After our discussion on Tuesday, I went back to my room and could not remember how to

your emails sent through OnCourse, but I still couldn’t figure out how to do this. Can you
send me a link to a tutorial? Also, can we meet to discuss my digital story topic? I have class
during your office hours. Thank you!
Sincerely,
