Things to Know

Students

How should I schedule my day around my online course?

  • Check your messages (email, Odysseyware, etc.) for announcements from your teacher.

  • Plan for 3.5 hours of work per day (M-F), per course. Look at your assignments for the day and set a schedule for yourself. (Include scheduled breaks and create a workspace that reduces distraction.)

  • Contact your teacher immediately if you are unsure of how to access or complete an assignment.

  • Complete your assignments by their due dates, and get ahead when possible. You may complete your courses early!

  • Check your messages one more time before ending your work day.

Students must log in each school day and stay on pace to avoid being dropped from the course.
