About
WebCT
WebCT is a secure,
password-protected, Web-based
Course Tools
system that can be used anytime,
anywhere. It has built-in tools such
as course material publishing,
syllabus, discussion board, chat,
quiz, and gradebook that facilitate
teaching and learning in a more
dynamic fashion.
URI has used WebCT
since 1998 to provide a Web-based
learning environment. Some faculty
use WebCT to supplement traditional
teaching while others use WebCT to
teach courses completely online with
only minimal or no face-to-face
meetings.
Students,
if you are taking a face-to-face course, you will be
informed in class if your instructor uses WebCT as a
supplementary teaching tool. If you are taking
a completely online course, refer to the
information below.
Taking A URI
On-Line Course
URI On-Line
courses are taught completely online
with minimal or no face-to-face
meetings. Registration is accomplished online
through eCampus.
Be sure to contact
your instructor before the semester
begins to obtain any information you
may need about your class and to find
out if your instructor is using
WebCT; some instructors might use systems other
than WebCT. The instructor
will also notify you when you can
access course materials, so make sure
your email address in e-Campus is
accurate.
