Select the following option (you have only one choice):
Submitting Assignment: Orientation Part III b
Your course (e.g., Mth 151, Mth 173, Phy 121, Phy 232, etc. ):
If you have one, please provide your access code. You may leave this part blank if you do not yet have an access code.
If you have not already made the request, you need to immediately return to the menu heading "Part 1: Establishing Communication" (you are currently on Part 3: Startup and Orientation) and follow the simple instructions for submitting your request. You should also complete the rest of Part 1.
Remember that it is crucial to enter your access code correctly. As instructed, you need to copy the access code from another document rather than typing it.

Your Name:
Your VCCS email address. This is the address you were instructed in Step 1 to obtain. If you were not able to obtain that address, indicate this below.
Task: `q001. Check out the videos.
It is possible that you have obtained DVD's containing the videos for the course. However these DVD's will ran out early during Spring Semester 2015, and will no longer be sold. Instead the videos, posted to YouTube, are found on the course homepage menu. The link is entitled simply 'Videos' and is located right under the link to the Brief Assignments Page.
You will also have the option to purchase a USB flash memory device containing a copy of the Class Notes documents with embedded videos; this might be a good option if your Internet connection isn't fast enough to load the videos efficiently.
You will need to check out the videos and see if the YouTube postings work adequately on your computer.
Go to your homepage and locate the 'Videos' link. Click on it. You will see a menu for the various chapters to be covered.
Click on one of those chapters. You will see a menu for the videos related to that chapter.
Pick a video and right-click. Ask that the video be opened in a new tab or a new window, as it won't play within the homepage. If there are multiple links, pick the one that starts with http://youtu.be.
These videos are designed for a typical computer screen and some may not be completely readable on hand-held devices.
If you do not have a fast and reliable Internet connection you may find it more convenient to have a copy of the Class Notes with embedded videos on a USB flash memory device, from which you can copy the videos to your hard drive. This can be provided through the VHCC bookstore at a reasonable cost.
Check out the video for download time and readability.
Your response (insert your response beginning in the next line; the next line is blank and doesn't include the #$... prompt):
#$&* (Note that your response was to go into 'the next line'; your response will therefore be inserted before this line, not after. This is obvious when you're looking at the form, but if you've copied the form into a text editor it might be less obvious. Hence this note.)
Task: `q002.
If the videos work and you know how to access them, please indicate this below. If they don't work, and/or you don't know how to access them, indicate specifically what you have done in your attempt to do so, and what has happened at every step.
