New System for Class
** **
My question involves using the new website system to access the course. I have been using the old system for all orientation and start up information, but since I have completed that, I wanted to use the new system to start actual assignments. I do not know how to access assignments and due dates on the new system.
** **
I do understand how to get to the new website through this link: http://vhcc2.vhcc.edu/dsmith/geninfo/frames_init_info/121/Initial_Information_121.htm.
Once I am at that page however, the left sidebar only lists the following: Preliminary Note
Part 1: Establishing communication.

???How do I reach all assignments and due dates through the new website???
@&
You've already completed the Orientaiton, so you should be able to get up to speed on the revised homepage very quickly.
The new homepage is at
http://vhcc2.vhcc.edu/ph1fall9/homepage_121_menu_driven.htm
and you might well be able to navigate it without further instruction.
However it won't take long to get a better introduction, so I recommend that you take just a little time to do the following:
Click on the link
A3. Homepage, due dates, course of study_121
for a runthrough of the homepage, due dates page and course of study.
It shouldn't take you more than 15 or 20 minutes to get up to speed.
You should also take a few minutes to go through the documents at the link
A4. Understanding learning_objectives
and
A5. Using your DVDs
Neither of those should take you very long, and both give you better information than you got in the previous Orientation.
