 Welcome to the Lynn Benton Community College Moodle Student Orientation video. My name is Paul Tannehill and I'm one of the eLearning Systems Administrators here. Now you might hear the term eLearning or LMS or Moodle used interchangeably around here. Basically Moodle is simply our open source learning management system or LMS. You can use Moodle in any modern desktop browser. Just make sure you keep that browser updated and you'll be fine. I'm going to be covering in this screencast how to locate our Moodle system, how to get logged in, what's your username and password, how to find your courses, basics like that, and how to find and get support in case you can't get logged in successfully or you can't find your courses. Let's go ahead and get started. Here we are at the College Home page at LynnBenton.edu. We're excited to announce that you will soon have access to all of the apps that you use as a student with one username and one password and that username will always be your LBCC ID number. It's important to understand that you're not logging in directly into Moodle or the other apps, but you're logging into the single sign-on system which then logs you in to the various apps. Another nice aspect of single sign-on is if you're logged into one of your systems through single sign-on, you're logged into all of your systems. Now, there are two basic ways of getting into Moodle. One might be familiar to you, the orange Moodle logo in the upper right. Going that route would take you directly to your Moodle dashboard. Another route in the Quick Links menu down to single sign-on. For now, let's go through the orange Moodle logo. At this point, I am not signed into single sign-on. Let's take a look. Here is a single sign-on login page. Now, if you haven't logged in here before, be on the lookout for a message from the Student Help Desk with instructions on how to claim your account. Again, your username is always your LBCC ID number, and if you forgot your username or you forgot your password, these links will help you get in right away. The Student Help Desk is equipped to help you with single sign-on issues. Let's go ahead and get logged in. Notice the little progress bar at the very top of your browser. It might take a few seconds. In your course overview section of your dashboard, on the courses tab, pay attention to the in-progress, future, and past buttons. Now, if you're not seeing a course that you think you should hear in your dashboard, it might be one of a few different things. Let's cover those. First of all, it might be that your course doesn't use Moodle. It might be that your instructor hasn't made your course available to students yet, or your instructor hasn't set up Auto One Role for students. In that case, the solution is to ask your instructor. It might be that you are on the waitlist for that course, though, and or you may have opted out or have been opted out of student email. In that case, we recommend going over to the Message and Registration Department where they can fix the issue and then you'll see your course pop up here in your Moodle dashboard. You can reach the Student Help Desk at student.helpdesk at lindbenton.edu. The phone number is 541-917-4630, and also it's located in the library on the Albany campus. We're here to support your education. We hope you've enjoyed this screencast and give you some good information on how to get access and get started using Moodle. Have a great term.
