Online Course Information
- 1. Welcome to our online course.
- 2. An online classroom is the same as any other classroom. For everyone to gain the most from our course we have guidelines to ensure communication between the group is always a positive experience. Learning Online
- 3. Be on time. Sessions will start and finish at the given time. Choose a quiet location-(away from pets, children). Turn off the TV and any music. Make sure you have a TEAMS background on if using a web camera. Be ready for the session. Have any resources you will need close by. If you join late, make sure your microphone is on mute. Your tutor will know you are there and support you at a suitable opportunity. Keep your microphone on mute when you are not talking. General Online Guidelines
- 4. We all learn from each other-sharing ideas will be part of each session. To make the most of your learning experience ask questions and give positive comments about what others say. Don't talk over each other. This will come with practice but do listen to what each other has to say. Follow the guidelines set by your tutor-i.e. raise your TEAMS hand. Don’t worry if you don’t feel confident to speak in the group straight away, you’ll soon be joining in! Sharing ideas with the group
- 5. Keep yourself safe online
- 6. Don't share your password with anyone. Change your password if you think someone else might know it. Only share an email address or other personal information if necessary. Be careful with your own, and others, personal information. Use the background option so no-one knows what is behind you. If someone needs you while you are online, turn off your camera and microphone. Keep yourself safe online
- 7. Be respectful of others and what they have to say. Do not write anything that you wouldn't say to their face. Think about how you would feel if you were receiving the message. Stay on topic. Is what you are saying relevant to the conversation? Your tutor has the final say in ensuring all the guidelines are kept. It’s important we are all safe. If you are concerned about someone's safety, tell your tutor or report it using the safeguarding number. A positive learning experience for all
