Check out Bryan University&#8217;s <a href=\"\/resources\/online-research-services\/\">Library Resource Center<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Dashboard<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>From their dashboard, students can look at their instructor&#8217;s contact information as well as their office hours. Students can also look at the content covered during that particular week. The syllabus is also available for students to view. It gives them a breakdown of the course description as well as assignment summaries. The syllabus contains a weekly to-do list of what is going to be due for that particular week. The dashboard provides students with access to their grades, email, library resources, as well as eBooks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vital Source and eBooks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Students can view their books through the website or, a preferred method is to download the vital source bookshelf, which they can download on their desktop, laptop, or even a mobile device. Students have the ability to download their books for offline reading, which allows them to complete the assigned chapter reading as required. When students select their book, they can see a brief view of the highlights for that particular book. Once they pull up the text, they have the ability to have the text read to them. There is also a zoom feature that enhances the font to allow for easier reading. Students have the option to export their highlights, which provide wonderful study guides helping them to prepare for quizzes and exams.<br \/>\nAdditional features from Vital Source are the ability to search for key terms within the chapters as well as the entire book. This feature provides retention for key concepts and terms throughout the course. Students have the ability to use highlights to help them study for their exams and quizzes. Some of them are built in, but students can also create additional new highlights as well as subscribing to people who have highlights for their course.<\/p>\n<p><strong>McGraw Hill Connect<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Students also have the ability to use McGraw Hill connect, which allows them to learn at their own pace. One of the benefits of McGraw Hill connect is that students can quiz themselves to see where their learning knowledge base is. This allows students to receive immediate feedback, which re-enforces the learning objectives. McGraw Hill labs provide comprehensive and realistic approaches to learning.

This is a wonderful tool in helping students understand the concepts of the course.<\/p>\n<p>Related Post:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Live Classrooms<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Students have the ability to attend instructors live classrooms, which happen weekly. This allows students to ask questions directly so they understand the concepts for the course. Another form of student engagement is the weekly announcements. Announcements from your instructor can cover a wide variety of topics and in this particular example; our algebra instructor is actually covering a particular math problem that is in their weekly assignment. Having the availability to view videos such as this at any time allows students to have the optimal learning experience.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Discussions <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Each week the students are able to participate in discussions. This allows them to interact with their peers as well as the instructor. As you can see in the example here, there is a thread of discussion. Students receive qualitative feedback from their instructors. Instructors can highlight a portion of their answer, provide feedback on that one individual answer, or provide feedback on the overall submission for their course assignments. Students also have the ability to download the mobile app, which allows them to access their courses. They can submit quizzes, assignments as well as discussions to their instructors and their peers through the app. Students can interact with their instructors through the BU connect messaging system. This secure network allows them to have a thread like an email conversation about their courses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Career Services<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Students have access to the career services optimal resume, which can help them build resumes, letters, as well as interview videos.
