Question on OPME's

[muffin]

This wasn't the case for HIE275. The essays were only online for the week scheduled, and once started you only had 3 hours to complete.

Ah we refer to those as "discussions" because of how they are administered technically. (Through the discussion forums)

I just wanted to add a couple "tips" with these courses in DNDlearn - I'm not sure if RMC has this info in their courses or not...

• write out your long answers in notepad first. DNDLearn "times out" and if you spend an hr writing an answer, it's really infuriating to lose it when you hit submit/enter because the system logged you out.
• don't paste text written in Word/Excel/etc - the text editor in DNDlearn really has a hard time with Microsoft formatting markup - it could "break" the discussion and will need the helpdesk to delete the post to get it working again.
• if you attach a file don't use french characters or symbols like & or () - the database the files are saved to will not let the prof open/save the doc if you use these characters and the helpdesk will have to rename them.
• or quizzes, if you write out your responses in notepad and try to paste them into the quiz and find right-click is disabled you can still paste with Ctrl+V
• if you encounter trouble with the quizzes (technical issues, lockouts, freezing, connection errors etc) call/email the admin at RMC or the helpdesk. For technical issues we can reset quizzes or submit them on your behalf when applicable.
• Update your email address in the "reply to" field of your "My Prefrences"->"Email" section on your DNDLearn homepage. If you don't do this and you use the system to send an email to the instructor/another student using the system he/she can't reply to it. (There are instructions in the RMC School page "News" )
• If you are enrolled in more than one school and can't see the RMC School page when you log in, you can click on the left/center of the banner at the top of any page and it will take you to the DNDLearn Homepage ("the purple page"). On this page near the bottom/center you will see a list of the schools you are enrollled in. You can click on the links here to see the school home pages.

That's all I can think of off the top of my head... if I think of anything else that might be helpful for learners to know I will add it.

Ah we refer to those.....

Perhaps the Army.ca owner can intercede with your husband's Career Manager, so that you can stay and continue answering DNDLearn questions here..... 

Just sayin'
