How Courses Work

All courses run week to week. Assignments must be posted by the end of the course week. For example, if a course begins on Wednesday, it is due by the following Tuesday. Students exchange feedback with each other, so it's always best to post early.

WVU distinguishes Course pages from Classrooms

 

  • Course pages contain course information, material and assignments.
  • Classrooms are where greetings, comments, feedback and course assignments are posted.
  • Each Course page has a link to its Classroom. Each Classroom has a link back to the Course page.
  • You can also access Courses under Menu or Classrooms from the Forums.
