How Courses Work

All courses run week to week. Assignments must be posted by the end of the course week. For example, if a course begins on Wednesday, it is due by the following Tuesday. Students exchange feedback with each other, so it's always best to post early.

WVU distinguishes Course pages from Classrooms

Course pages contain course information, material and assignments.
Classrooms are where greetings, comments, feedback and course assignments are posted.
Each Course page has a link to its Classroom. Each Classroom has a link back to the Course page.
You can also access Courses under Menu or Classrooms from the Forums.
