Distance Learning Orientation Fall 2008
If you are a student
who has never taken a distance learning course,
you must either attend an orientation
session on the VWCC campus or complete the online general
distance learning orientation session. You will find a link named
Orientation in your Blackboard course to complete the online
course orientation
for your instructor. Each instructor determines how the completed
online orientation will be recorded and evaluated but the requirement
must be met either by attending the campus orientation or completing the
online orientation.
Note: For detailed information about the Distance Learning Orientation
please review the
Distance
Learning Student letter.
