Scenario 2
In this scenario, your instructor has given you a user ID and password, and a URL to enter the course.
There are three possibilities here:
-
If the URL is long and ends in
index.html (for example, http://myschool.webct.com:8900/public/mycourse/index.html) enter the address. This will bring you to your course's Welcome Page. You will see two buttons at the bottom of the page, like these:
Click on the Login button. You will be asked for a user name and password. Enter them exactly as they were given.
Go to Step 4.
- If the URL is long and ends in serve_home or serve_home.pl (for example, http://myschool.webct.com:8900/SCRIPT/mycourse/scripts/serve_home) you will immediately be asked for a user name and password. Enter them exactly as they were given. Go to Step 4.
- If the URL is short (for example, http://myschool.webct.com:8900) the page you see should resemble one listed below:
WebCT server home page
