Studying Online

We are excited to support your studies with the College remotely until you can join us in person. Remote Learning is only part of your studies and it does not mean that you will be required to complete your entire studies this way.

Before you proceed with accessing your study material, it is important that you:

  • Set up your student email – all communication from the College will be sent to your student email address. It is important that you check your student email regularly.
  • Ensure that your University emails are being forwarded to your personal email address.
  • Check that you can access your courses in eCollege.

 

Accessing your study materials in eCollege

The University requires that you are actively engaged with your study materials on eCollege when you study in person and remotely. Please be aware that your engagement on eCollege will be closely monitored to ensure that you are well prepared for the rest of the course.

In each of the courses that you have been enrolled, you will find a ‘Remote Learning’ Module. You will need to access this module for information relating to your remote learning. Your study materials will still be accessible on your subject pages. Read through the materials and complete all activities, tasks and/or assessments required.

The College will support your studies and engagement in this course through ‘live’ sessions using Zoom meetings. All sessions where possible will be recorded and uploaded to the ‘Remote Learning – Zoom Videos’ section. A consent box will appear when your teacher begins to record your session. You must accept the consent if you wish to continue in the Zoom meeting. If you do not wish to be recorded, please inform your teacher in charge of the session and turn off/cover your camera during the session. However, note that you will be asked to contribute during the session.

When you access Zoom for the first time, you can either access it from the link your teacher will provide you, or through the Zoom app. The Zoom app can be downloaded to all Windows, Apple and Android devices.

To set up your Zoom access, click on https://zoom.us/download. You will sign in with an SSO, using your University of Adelaide Account login details. Additional logging instructions can be located here. Please also keep an eye out for communication from your teachers.

Attached the GAE teacher codes, also available on eCollege.
