Because you only have one face-to-face class per week, the video conference (mainly google hangouts) session takes priority over all other school activities. If it is impossible for you to attend the class for any very good reason, you must inform your eTeacher prior to the lesson and ensure that you find out from your teacher or other students what work was covered and organise to catch up the work.
Behaviour in a video conference is much like that required for a normal class, i.e. you do your work, behave politely etc, but the environment has a far more personal feel than a normal secondary school classroom. You will be asked to contribute more as an individual and any distractions are amplified. For this reason really focussing in a session is paramount.
Arriving on time is important, as you will disturb the lesson flow by being late. However, it is important that you turn up to the lesson even if you are late.
When things go wrong see your eDean!
First and foremost, you will need a google account with google+ enabled. Your eDean should be able to help you with this. Every class has at least one hour session scheduled a week. These have been calendared and shared with your google account which means there are a few ways to access your session.
If you have any problems either get your eDean or ring one of the following numbers. - 0272171121 or 0274468532
