Navigating Your Student Home Page: A Comprehensive Guide

Upon logging into your student account, you'll be greeted by your home page, a central hub designed to keep you informed and organized. This guide will walk you through the key features of your student home page, including the notification feed and the to-do list, as well as other functionalities.

Understanding the Notification Feed

The Notification Feed serves as an activity log, providing a chronological list of important updates and events. Each time you've been assigned an assessment or a lesson, an assessment has been graded, or when a class board or blog post has been added, you’ll see a notification in this feed. This allows you to stay on top of deadlines, track your academic progress, and engage with your course content.

Mastering Your To-Do List

The To-Do List is a dynamic tool that displays assigned assessments and lessons that haven't been completed yet. It is prominently displayed on your Home page.

How the To-Do List Works

Prioritization: Assessments and lessons are listed in order of their due date. If an item doesn't have a due date, it will appear in the order it was assigned. Overdue assessments and lessons are always at the top of the list, ensuring you address them first.
Direct Access: You can click on any item in the list to go directly to that assessment or lesson, saving you time and effort.
Display: You see 3 assessments and/or lessons at once. If you have more assessments or lessons, click Show All.

Leveraging Additional Features and Resources

Beyond the notification feed and to-do list, your student home page may offer access to a variety of other features and resources designed to enhance your learning experience.

Connect Platform Navigation

Many courses utilize online platforms like Connect. If your instructor provided a URL to register for your course, follow the provided instructions to get started. Connect offers numerous functionalities, including completing proctored assignments and tracking your progress. Technical support for Connect is typically readily available through the platform itself or your institution's IT department.

Virtual Labs

Virtual Labs offer a simulated environment for conducting experiments and gathering data. These labs can be valuable for reinforcing concepts and developing practical skills. Once you have your virtual lab data collected, you may wish to save it as a PDF or print it before submitting.

GoReact

GoReact is another platform commonly used in educational settings, often for video-based assignments and feedback.

McGraw Hill eBook and AI Reader

Many Connect courses automatically include an eBook, providing a digital version of your textbook. These eBooks often include features such as highlighting, note-taking, and search functionality. McGraw Hill’s AI Reader is a generative AI learning tool within your eBook.

Accessing Grades

Grades from the current semester will be available for view.
