I just put the link for the Tips for Student success in my spring 2015 class in the getting started link. What a great site for students.
I think the students will really find the Tips for Student Success helpful and putting it under the Get Started link is a great idea!
FACULTY ENDORSEMENT:
The Faculty Learning Corner is an amazing place to connect with like-minded individuals across the University of Alaska system who are passionate about employing technology to facilitate creative learning environments. Not only can you find web-based resources for instructor consideration and student success, there are also training opportunities, webinars, videos, and a daily blog filled with timely and relevant concepts that keep us from getting left behind in the rapidly changing world of apps, resources, and functionality. For example, recent discussions have focused on gamification, Google Forms, and fun faculty challenges all of which serve to stimulate ideas, test the waters, and build relationships. If you haven’t checked it out, you’re missing out. You can visit the site here: http://flc.learningspaces.alaska.edu

Recommendation:
I highly recommend all faculty visit the Faculty Learning Corner, link here: http://flc.learningspaces.alaska.edu. Whether teaching an on-line course or face-to-face there is something for everyone. There is so much information available on the website, yet it is never overwhelming. Features are presented daily and are brief and concise. There is a lot of fun stuff to explore as well as serious articles and recommedations.
