Enrolling in a Learning Center Class

Changing Your Password
When you logon to the Learning Center for the first time, you will be required to change your password before continuing. This is a security procedure. From this point on in the process no one else - even in the Center for Lifelong Learning - will know your password. Please do not share passwords with any other student or individual.	View Video

Posting to a Discussion Forum
Discussion forums provide opportunities to engage in asynchronous interactions with other students. Asynchronous simply means that, unlike chat or instant messaging, students do not need to be online at the same time. To make this work, in many classes you will be expected to post discussion topics and reply to those of others as part of your learning experience. In this session, you will learn how to post an initial topic to a discussion forum.	View Video

Replying to a Discussion Forum
Discussion is at least two-way. You will be asked to consider and respond to the postings of other students and to those initiated by your instructor. This session will explain how to interact with your fellow students.	View Video

Using the Calendar Function
Many classes in the Learning Center have the calendar function activated. If so, you are able to see important course dates, group dates, and, if you choose, post personal "user" dates to keep track of your course activities and planning. This session will show you how to add a user event to a calendar.	View Video

Updating Your Profile
You have an online profile that will help others know a little about you as you study together. While we discourage the inappropriate posting of personal information, the more others know about you, the more they will be able to interact with you from a position of knowledge.	View Video

Using "Breadcrumbs" for Navigation
The Online Learning Center permits the student to use the Back and Forward buttons of their browser to navigate the classroom. You are also provided a trail of "breadcrumbs" that provide immediate access to previous pages in your path.	View Video

Uploading a File
It is very easy to upload a file for review in the Learning Center. Sometimes you will have the option to upload a file more than once as a work in progress; other times you will not. Whichever the case, the process remains largely the same.	View Video

Taking a Quiz
Sorry, there frequently are quizzes in our Learning Center classrooms. Some are fully online, while others are files that you will download, answer, and upload for grading. In this video, you will learn how to take an online quiz successfully.	View Video

Enabling Cookies in Internet Explorer

It depends on your Internet Explorer browser version.

In IE 6.0+

From inside IE, click on Tools > Internet Options and choose the Privacy Tab.
Change the slider settings incrementally lower until you are able to access the online learning center.
If your version of IE has an option on the Privacy tab allowing you to override cookie settings on individual sites, I would recommend using that so that only http://www.wscll.net is changed.
Save your settings.

In IE 5.0+

From inside IE, click on Tools > Internet Options and choose the Security Tab.
Scroll down until you see "Cookies" and click on the "Enable" radio button.
