Preparing for the First Day of Class

      Preparing for the first day of an online class is much like preparing for your first day in a traditional class. Get your required text as soon as possible. Be sure to have your email address and any needed software updated. Become familiar with the course syllabus and due dates. Also begin setting aside time to complete your classwork.

      Preparing for class means preparing to learn. Not only should you be sure you have all of the proper tools for success but a proper mindset as well. Begin you course with specific goals for learning. Set time lines to complete and keep yourself motivated.
