Manage your time well and stay organized
HELPFUL TIPS
Be ready to commit about 10 hours of coursework per week for a 15-week
course, and 20 hours of coursework per week for an 8-week course.
At the start of each semester, review the syllabus for each of your
courses. Make note of all major deadlines, as well as weekly assignments
and readings.

Participate, and embrace your online community
HELPFUL TIPS
One of the biggest myths of online learning is that you are completely on your own, but this is
far from the truth. Community may look different online, but it is certainly there.
Participating in online discussion threads, and in video lectures will enhance not only your
own learning experience, but that of your classmates as well. When participating in your
online course, remember to always be respectful. Think about how your written words could
be interpreted by others and always be considerate of other views and opinions. With that said,
be willing to share your own ideas and perspectives as well.
Important Note: Attendance does not replace active participation in online courses, and all
attendance requirements must be met.

WHICH POST SHOULD NOT BE SUBMITTED ON A DISCUSSION THREAD?
A. Social media marketing is so valuable to a business. Not only will it promote a business and bring exposure, but it can also bring in sales.
B. In my opinion, TikTok is the best social media platform to use for marketing purposes. This platform is used worldwide and can reach a wide audience.
C. Social media marketing is great. But, if you’re still using Facebook in 2022, then your business is going nowhere. Just quit.
D. There are so many tools available that help track data for social media posts. You can use this data to see what types of posts your audience likes and responds to
well, and then continue to create similar type of content.

Get to know Moodle and your instructors
• Log in to Moodle frequently, at least 3 times a week, to stay up-to-date with announcements from your instructors, as well as
new responses in the discussion threads.
• Use your Centenary University email address for all school communications.
• Instructors are expected to respond to phone calls and emails within 24 hours.
• Respond to communication that you receive in a timely manner, and with well-written responses.
Meet all the technology requirements necessary
• This will generally allow you to participate in video lectures without any lagging,
buffering, or other connection issues.
• Familiarize yourself with Microsoft Office 365 and SharePoint, available to you through
your school account.
• Take security measures with all your technology usage and never share passwords.
Ask for help
HELP DESK
If you need help, be sure to speak up! Reach out to
your instructors if you need help with your courses.
Stand-up desks are a great way to reduce back and neck pain, and a good way
to reduce the amount of time spent sitting.
Lastly, consider using blue light blocking glasses to reduce eye strain and
headaches caused by screens.
