Student Communications

For your reference, here are some of the resources and information that UD Online provides students enrolled in distance learning classes.

Integrating some of these links in your initial communications with students or Canvas course’s home page can help set students up for success:

UD Online Student Log-on and Course Access – This is especially helpful for students who may have never taken an online course before.
Tips for Online Learning – This page lets students know what to expect when taking online courses, including tips from fellow UD Online students.
UD Online Exam Procedures – This page has everything your students need to know about the UD Online Testing Center, including a short video tour.
