WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ACCESSING COURSES ONLINE
Download the ONLINE STUDENT MANUAL for detailed instructions on accessing/using online resources.
Once you have accessed your course through Canvas, familiarize yourself with the course page to locate your syllabus and course due dates. Your course may incorporate streaming media, which contains videos where you will gain information similar to if you were listening to a lecture in a face-to-face classroom. The Canvas course page will also indicate if you are required to contact the Distance Learning office to obtain any supplemental materials.
Note that all distance learning courses utilize remote testing. Contact your instructor for course-specific instructions on testing remotely.
