I'm logged in. Now what?

Once you have logged in, you will see your main menu screen, containing all of the menus that you can access when you are in Can-8:

Student Main Menu: The Student Main Menu screen displays all of the menus you can access in Can-8.

Language Menu

You will have a menu for each language for which you are registered. In this menu, you will access textbook and workbook exercises, both oral and written. This menu includes both in-class exercises and out-of-class homework.

Change Your Password

Your Can-8 password is not linked to your global Carleton password and therefore will not change when you change your Carleton password. Use this menu to change your Can-8 password. You must change your Can-8 password the first time you log in to Can-8.

Demonstration Lessons Menu

This is a Can-8 tutorial, containing lessons in various languages and demonstrating the wide variety of exercises you will encounter in Can-8. By using the demonstration lessons menu, you can begin to familiarize yourself with Can-8 and the many types of exercises you will be expected to complete in class or for homework.

To access a menu, simply click once on the menu name. Submenus will open and you can continue clicking on the menus until you get to the one you want. The menus open on top of each other. You may move or resize the menus and the entire Can-8 window to make them easier to view.
