Communication

1. Read the entire syllabus for each class. 

-Keep a copy of the syllabus handy throughout the semester for quick reference.  Make note of the instructor's email address, and their preferred method of communication should you need to contact them.  Ensure you have all required materials such as textbooks.   

2. Follow the syllabus schedule for assignment due dates and test procedures. 

-Do not assume you may begin your DL class or turn in assignments at any time.  Online classes observe the same academic schedules as on-campus classes and many instructors have specific timelines to follow. 

3. Plan ahead for assignments and tests. 

-
If you need to send materials by regular mail, make sure you allow enough time, especially at the end of the semester.  Since most of the class work has to be forwarded to the instructor, all assignments should be in the DL office in Lewiston 5 days before the end of the semester.
