Are you ready for Distance Learning?
Distance Learning is different from regular classes. There are no fixed times when you have to be in class, but there is no one reminding you when your assignments are due. Also, all of your assignments will be handed via computer, tablet, or smartphone. There are regularly scheduled assignments throughout the quarter.

How do I go to class?
Most Highline online and hybrid classes are conducted through our online learning system, called Canvas. You will need to log in to that system to do your class work.
Help?
Online Classes
You will usually receive an email from your instructor prior to the first day of classes. This letter will include information about how to get started in the class.
IF YOU HAVE NOT HEARD from your instructor by the first day of class, check Canvas to see if your instructor has published information there. It is your responsibility to contact him/her.
Make sure you purchase your books, set up your computer and internet connection, and install any additional software before the first day of classes.
Hybrid Classes
For most hybrid classes, you will receive information about the class at the first face-to-face meeting of the class. If you are not able to make the first class, it is your responsibility to contact the instructor for information.
