Student Checklist

πŸ‘‰ Below is a guide on some things we recommend you do each day through your student journey.

πŸ“±Β Log into Aula daily - Make sure you keep up to date with your studies and check content and Tutor communication on your modules.

😎 Make sure you check your community page weekly - This page will have information about your overall course and will advertise events, external speakers etc.

πŸ“§Β Check your University emails - Make sure you check your student email on a daily basis. The University will only email you on your University account.

πŸ“…Β Make sure you know when your deadlines are - Make sure you are aware of your Assignment deadlines.

πŸŽ“Β Online/offline study - You may start the year with a mixture of online and offline study make sure you know when online lectures are and you have the equipment to access these. Also checking materials daily is key as some of these will require you to watch videos, work on activities etc.

🀝 Online session etiquette - Make sure you are on time for online sessions, these are no different from classroom sessions. When you enter an online room make sure you are on mute so you do not disrupt other students already in the session.
