You do not need a username and password to access the WiredProf.com
site. However, you will need a username and password for the
WebCT
site, which is hosted by the California Virtual Campus (CVC),
an entity that maintains all of our on-line and hybrid courses and makes
sure they run smoothly.
To gain access to the CVC/WebCT site, you need a USERNAME
and PASSWORD.
USERNAMES:
Your USERNAME consists of the first two letters
of your first name in ALL CAPS, the first two letters of your last
name in ALL CAPS and the next-to-last 4 numbers of your Permanent
(Student) ID#. (Consult the list above because the account generator may
have inadvertently changed the very last digit.) For example, if Darren
Chiang-Schultheiss’s Perm# was 123456, then my USERNAME would be DACH2345.
Your USERNAME must be typed in UPPER
CASE or you won't be able to log in. This is very important to
remember.
PASSWORDS:
Your PASSWORD is the word STUDENT in ALL
CAPS.
IMPORTANT! All students
received NEW Banner PIDMs (student #s) for Fall 2001. Very likely, many of
you will forget your number or lose it. You may also try to use your old
number to log in and it won't work. Please make sure you use your NEW ID.
ALSO IMPORTANT!! CHANGE your
PASSWORD immediately or another student may be able to access your class,
view your grades, and destroy your work. WRITE DOWN your password. Set up
your PASSWORD HINT within WebCT. PLEASE write it down! A lost password may
mean you lose all your work in the class, it may mean that you miss
important due dates and/or it may mean that you cannot log in for 48
hours. It is also important that you preserve the privacy of your account.
Under no circumstances should you ever give out your PASSWORD.
LOGGING IN:
To log in, use the FALL 2001 LOGIN link
at the California Virtual Campus:
- Click here: http://cvc2.org/webct/
then click on the link that says FALL 2001 LOGIN.
- You'll be prompted to enter a password reminder.
- Next, enter your USERNAME and PASSWORD. Once
you are authenticated, find the Change Password link in the upper
right part of the window and update your password to whatever you
want. Just be sure to write it down and not to forget it.
- Follow the directions in the orientations
page that you may have already read.
PROBLEMS??
If you cannot log in, then ask yourself the following:
If all else fails, e-mail me or submit the WebCT Help
form at
http://www.fullcoll.edu/pub/webct/webcthelp.cfm
If you are a FIRST-TIME USER of WebCT, you may want to
review the WebCT orientation at:

The Fullerton College administrator of this program,
Oceanography professor Sean Chamberlin, has posted a guide to using WebCT
at the following site:

Feel free to look at that information and use it. It’s
very informative.
Whenever you log into the course, make sure you look at
the homepage. Students have a tendency to move right to the discussion
boards and other things, but the homepage is where I will post important
announcements.
