Instructions: After reviewing all material and presentations on the online student orientation page, select and copy all text on this page, and then paste it into a new word processing document.  Answer all of the following questions in your own words and save the document, preferably with the  rich text format (.rtf). If you do not have a word processing application on your computer, use Notepad, and save the file with the .txt format. Using your MSCC email account, or Blackboard, attach the document to an email message and send it to each of your online instructors. Do NOT copy/paste the questions into an email message.  It is important that you demonstrate your ability to attach a file to an email message. Name the document "your_name_oso.rtf" or "your_name_oso.txt".

When your instructor receives your answers, he/she will grant you continued access to the Blackboard course site. Failure to send your answers will result in your being blocked from the course. Remember, you must send this to the instructor of each online or hybrid course you are enrolled in.
