• On Campus Orientations - This hands-on session allows students to participate in debunking common myths associated with distance learning. Upon completion of our presentation, we break out and test your username and password in the college's computer lab. It is absolutely essential you attend one of these sessions if you've never taken an online course. These sessions are held on the West Windsor Campus.

• Online Orientations - We realize that some of you may be unable to attend our on-campus orientation due to various outside influences. Because of this, we will be offering online information sessions. While these sessions do not fully cover the content we go over in our face to face sessions, they may prove helpful to you.

  Go to http://mccc.angellearning.com at the time of the session listed above in "Online Orientations." There will be a "Public Announcements" area containing this link on the login page. We will clearly designate the live information session, where all you will need to do is click on a link and you will be taken to the orientation.

• BIO115 - Your instructor will be on hand to pass out the syllabi and answer any questions you have regarding your Telecourse. This is not an online course.

• HPE111 - Please be sure to attend one of the mandatory sessions listed above. If you are unable to make the session, it is your responsibility to contact the instructor to obtain the syllabus and other course information. This is not an online course.
