How will I use ConnectWeb?

ConnectWeb is an Internet-based system that allows you to read assignments, post papers, participate in discussions, review other students’ papers and see their comments on yours, and maintain an ongoing record of your messages, discussion comments, and posted work.

What I will need?

You will need a computer and  access to a word processing program like MSWord. Create assignments on the word processor and then upload them to ConnectWeb. Using a word processor allows users to check spelling and save files for later use and change. MSWord works best but other word processors may work if the files can be saved as web page files before they are uploaded to ConnectWeb.

You will need an Internet Connection and web browser. ConnectWeb is browser-based, which means that anyone who wants to use it must have an Internet connection and a browser like Internet Explorer.

You will need a place to store files. You can store files on your computer’s hard drive if you are only using one computer, but if you are using different computers – in class, on campus, etc. you need to have a place to store files like a disk or CD or USB flash drive. That way you can always have a copy of your files with you wherever you are working.

You will need a Login Name and Password.  Logins are issued automatically by Connect.web, when your instructor enters your name on a master class list. The login is a combination of your first initial and last name, so, if your name is Jane Smith, type "jsmith" (you may use capital letters if you wish) the login box. Then enter a password of your own choosing -- but type very carefully and enter one you'll remember, because the system will check for that password every time.

Do I need to buy anything?

You don’t need to buy anything to use ConnectWeb; the fee you paid when you registered for English I and II entitles you to use the software. If you do get a message from Connect asking for payment, do not pay. Simply inform your instructor, and someone will contact the company about the error.

What if you have trouble logging in?

If you have trouble logging in, first check to be sure that you're in the right section. If so, try the login and password you entered once again. If you still receive an error message, contact your instructor; it's possible that he/she may have mistyped your name or that someone with a similiar name has created a login. In this case, Connect.web adds a number to the login; your instructor can tell you if you have one of these special logins. Finally, if at any time during the semester you forget your password, contact your instructor, who can reset your account to allow you to set up a new password.
