Help Students Get Ready to Start

After students register for courses:

1. Give students login information for their DLC email accounts. Email accounts will be accessible within 24 hours of registration. Students should check their email accounts at least one day before their courses start for a "welcome" email and other important information (see note below about UW courses).
2. Let students know who their Teacher/Mentor will be. And inform students about how and when to access their online courses during the school day.
3. Any textbooks or materials ordered for courses in the registration process will be sent to the attention of the Teacher/Mentors. Students should keep in touch with their Teacher/Mentors during the first few days of the course to make sure they receive everything they need.
4. Some course providers require students to complete an orientation before starting the course; others have orientation information available. The DLC highly recommends that students take the time to orient themselves to their courses as soon as possible so that nothing important is missed.

While students are waiting for their courses to start, have them take a tour of the Start-Up Demo Accounts. They'll get practice accessing online courses. And you know what they say: Practice makes perfect!
