Canvas:
We will use Canvas for our exams and zoom sessions. Canvas is the university’s current Learning Management System (LMS). For resources and/or Canvas related questions or issues please use the Help (?) feature in the Canvas Global Navigation for assistance via phone or a 24-hour Chat feature. Visit the “Tech Support” page in our Canvas Course for additional resources.
Zoom Virtual Classes:
This course will meet twice a week using Zoom. Zoom is downloaded to your computer the first time you use it and does require regular updates; please download the latest version of Zoom and open the downloaded file to install the app before the course begins. If you have already downloaded Zoom for a previous course, click review instructions on updating to the latest version.
Make sure you enter your first name and last name correctly when signing into your Zoom session. While there are ways to join a Zoom session through mobile phone, this should only be used in an emergency. Please log into the virtual classes before the scheduled class time, as we will begin promptly. You can access the virtual classes in Canvas under the “Zoom” link in your Course Navigation. Students in classes with Zoom registration enabled can also access sessions via the link that is emailed to them.
Zoom Walkthroughs:
The Online BBA program encourages students new to Zoom to join a student Zoom Walkthrough. Attendance to a pre-course Zoom Walkthrough is suggested for those new to the Online program course structure to test your audio and video prior to your first meeting. A list of Zoom Walkthroughs can be found here.
