How to Use This Learning Environment (e-ZLRN©)
Your course environment, is created with e-ZLRN©. e-ZLRN© is a friendly learning environment. All the features available in the course are listed on the left frame. When you click on each feature, its content is displayed on the main frame (the larger area on the screen). The content of the first feature, Orientation, is displayed on your screen upon launching the course. It should be displayed on your computer now.
Feature Description - After accessing this link, click on each feature to explore the content included in it, so that you will feel more comfortable while learning in this environment. Using e-zteach, you cannot be "lost" somewhere in cyberspace. If, at any point, you are not sure where to find an activity or a practice, look for the appropriate feature on the left, click on it and start your way again from there. In some modules, content pages are opened as new windows (instead of in the main frame). When you finish working on these pages, close the window to return to the course (you will be prompted to do that at the end of such pages).
If you experience any difficulties starting
this course, call your instructors:
(562) 938-----.

Start working the modules sequentially. New lessons build on material learned in previous sections, so it's important to follow the modules in order.
Access this course FREQUENTLY. Make sure you complete all the assignments in a timely manner based on the due dates for each assignment. For due dates, check the Course Information section, or the Calendar section on the left.
Participate ACTIVELY in the discussion forum. Post your responses to the instructors' topics and RESPOND TO OTHER STUDENTS' POSTS as well. The forum is another way of learning and it is very important for your success in the course.
Carefully read the instructions for the
assignments in each module. Some assignments need to be e-mailed
to the instructors, and some need to be reported on the forums.
There are also many self-assessment practices - these are for
you only. No need to e-mail or share the results with anyone.
If you have questions about these practices, e-mail the instructors.
