CLASSROOM MESSAGE BOARD
To access your classroom message board, first enter your classroom as noted here on the start date. You will find the link to the classroom message board at the top of your classroom page and/or at the bottom of your classroom page. Once you arrive, feel free to post messages here to introduce yourself and meet your fellow classmates. Check your classroom message board often as all important announcements will be posted to the message board by your instructor.
Setting Message Board Preferences
There are several different message formats so be sure to go to the "Set Preferences" link at the top of the classroom message board page and choose the layout best for you.
For instructions on how to attach a url and set your message receipt preferences, go to the Message Board Tips page.
LESSONS
Lessons will be posted to the classroom for viewing on the web (HTML) and/or in printable format (PDF). Adobe® Acrobat® Reader is freely distributable software that lets you view and print Portable Document Format (PDF) files. You may download the free program at

Once the session begins, most lessons will be posted each Saturday unless otherwise stated in the classroom. Just follow the link in your classroom to receive your lessons each week. Lessons and lesson files will remain online for approximately 30 days after the last lesson is posted. Be sure to download your class files before your access to the classroom is removed.
