First Few Days of Classes

  • It is essential to start working in your class as soon as the semester begins. Your instructor should have an assignment due very soon after the semester starts. You must complete it so you do not get dropped from the course for not participating.
  • It is also essential to check and make sure that all the classes you have listed on your Banner SSB registration page are showing up in Canvas. If they are not, please get in touch with your advisor.

Attendance Agreement Verification

All students are required to complete the Attendance Agreement Verification for every course they are enrolled in each semester. This verification confirms your participation and is a necessary step to maintain your enrollment status in each class. Failure to complete the verification by the deadline may result in being dropped from the course.

Student Identity Verification

All quizzes and tests online will be required to user HonorLock. Student will be required to submit their personal identification for access. Honorlock is a licensed product within Canvas to provide this service. The use of Honorlock helps to ensure the student taking the exam and completing coursework is the same student enrolled in the course. Honorlock ensures exam integrity by combining AI-driven monitoring with live proctor interventions, browser lockdown tools, and unique features like detecting leaked test content and unauthorized devices. 

Student authentication: Honorlock requires students to verify their identity before starting an exam, typically through photo ID checks and facial recognition. This ensures that the person taking the test is the enrolled student.
