C2C Help Tips

#1.  Use an updated version of the Firefox web browser to access C2C.

C2C is optimized for use in Firefox. You can download the latest version:

#2.  Find your C2C Shell

To access or setup your C2C shell (anyone) login to  myOISE  (UTORid) and click on the [Communities icon] in the top menu. If it is a course shell, it will show up under [My C2C Courses and Cohorts], otherwise it will appear under [My C2C Communities].

NOTE: The left side menu expands and allows you to view and access your communities in a linear way. For this demonstration, please use the top icon view of your communities.

Course C2C's are available for use by the designated instructor for any active course. The shell can be used or not. The C2C shell is activated (made live) when one forum and note is created within the empty shell. Students are automatically populated through ROSI. For your students to know about their C2C(s), you must:

1. Tell them to login to myOISE (it will always be there, among other OISE-related tools)

2. Give them the C2C URL (if you do not need or want to use the myOISE portal)

3. Link C2C inside of Blackboard (if in use) 

4. Any combination of the above, although we do recommed telling your students about myOISE, since Blackboard and many other links are available through this community-based intranet.

Instructors can set up a shell from this environment and integrate the link (URL) their in Blackboard course shell if desired.

If you are a student, you may access the C2C course shell through myOISE (UTORid) as above, however, your instructor may have also added a link to this C2C discussion tool to your course menu.
