How do I access an assignment?

Your in-class assignments will include both language exercises and classroom lab exercises. Your professor or TA will instruct you which exercises to open and how to navigate to them.

To complete language lab exercises outside of class, click on your language menu and submenus to open your assignment. Your syllabus or assignment sheet should list where you can find the appropriate lesson. You may move and resize the submenus for easier viewing.

Can-8 Main Menu and Submenus: Navigating to the assigned lesson requires clicking through a series of submenus that may be moved or resized for easier viewing. Check your syllabus or assignment sheet for where to find your assignment.

When you have the correct menus and submenus opened, click on your assigned lesson. The lesson screen will open automatically. Lesson screens may be accessible by menu or by sequence. Most lessons and homework exercises are navigable by menu. Most tests and some in-class exercises are navigated sequentially.

If the menu is enabled, clicking on the assigned lesson name will open the lesson menu:

Lesson Menu: A lesson menu will include several submenus that open when you click on an item in the left, main menu. To open the lesson item screen, click on the name of the item in the submenu.

Click on a lesson menu item to begin the lesson. The lesson item screen will open. If the menu is not enabled, you will not see the menu, and the lesson item screen will open when you click on the name of the lesson:

Lesson Items: The first item in the lesson will often be an introduction or instruction screen. Click the Next button to return to the menu or progress to the next screen in the lesson. Lessons may include a wide variety of lesson screen types.
