About This Site
Getting Started
I've created an account for every student on the official course roster. Your username is your first name and first letter of your last name. So, for example, Mr Example Q. Student would have a username of "Example S". When you enter your username in the form, do not put quotation marks but do include the space between first name and last initial. Your initial password is the last four digits of your Social Security Number.
Only students on the official roster will be permitted to login. All others may browse the site as visitors.
The first time you login to the site, you should edit your information. Click on "My Account" in the navigation block on the upper left and then on the "Edit" tab. Enter the email address you will use for this course. You may change your password if you wish. Then click on the "Submit" button at the bottom of the form. Next, click on the "My Notify Settings" tab. Enable notify status if you would like to receive email notification when new content or comments are posted. Click enabled for new content and/or comments as you wish. You'll receive an email once each 24 hours with links to the new content.
