SUCCESS TIPS

1. Textbooks: Order your text books online (see the Cheap Text section for tips)

  • Do this early, because it normally takes awhile to arrive
  • If you sign up late I would suggest getting it from the local bookstore (see the Cheap Text section for tips)
  • Not having supplies, especially if this is an online class, will put you behind

2. Email: Click Here for instructions on how to use it.

  • Check your email regularly
  • Failing to do so can often put a person behind

3. Blackboard: Use Blackboard (either for online or in-person courses).

Purpose

  • For online classes this is where everything will take place
  • For in person classes all assignments, lecture notes, handouts, announcements, discussion boards, and grades will be here. You must use this to succeed in the class.
