Course Description
Course Prerequisites (none)
Orientation to Online Learning
To be successful in an online course, you should
assess your readiness to successfully engage in an online learning class at
Broward College. You can complete the Orientation to Online Learning to determine if an online class
is a right fit for you and to learn how to navigate the system. Upon completion of the orientation, you will
earn a certificate. Some professors
require you to submit this certificate during orientation, so make sure to save
it in an easily accessible folder on your computer.
Course Attendance and Participation Policy
During the first week of class, you
must complete the Syllabus Quiz from the course orientation, or you will be
withdrawn from the course. Simply logging into the course will not satisfy your
attendance during this time. As with an on-campus course, students who are
reported for non-attendance in an online course and are withdrawn are still
responsible for paying for the course. If you do not complete the
requirements of the first week of class, you should drop the course by the
official drop/add deadline or expect to pay for the course.
It is very important for you to
actively participate in this online class. If you stop participating in class
discussions, do not submit assignments, or fail to take quizzes or tests prior
to the withdrawal date, you will be withdrawn from class and receive a W or, if
it is your third attempt, an F.
If you stop participating after the withdrawal date, you will receive an F. To avoid this situation, you should remain an active learner in this class and always communicate extenuating circumstances to your instructor. Ongoing communication with the instructor is critical to your course success. Completion of tests, assignments, and other class activities are used as indicators of your participation in order to satisfy this reporting requirement. See the list of activities required for participation and attendance on the General Course Policies page.
