The Extended Campus Closure policy applies to on-campus classes only.

Class during an Extended Campus Closure

Champlain College is taking precautionary measures to ensure that this class can continue in a "virtual environment" even during an extended emergency such as severe weather, contagious disease, physical infrastructure failure, campus closure, or similar incident. This course will continue either online through a college-provided learning management system (Canvas), or through some other process unless cancelled.

In the event of such an emergency, students are expected to continue instructor-designated class activities, as directed by the instructor. Due to the nature of the "virtual environment" learning activities may differ slightly from the on-campus course. In order for this emergency preparedness plan to be effective, you are asked to do the following:

Immediately

• Ensure that you will have a computer and broadband Internet access at the location (home or other) in which you will reside during an extended campus closure.
• Prepare yourself with the basic skills of logging into Canvas via the dashboard, finding your course(s) and entering them.
• Participate in a "warm up" online activity in the "virtual environment" when directed to do so by your instructor.

During an Emergency

• Test your broadband Internet access immediately upon arriving at your chosen residence during the campus closure.
• Log into Canvas and enter your courses.
• Check for emergency information on Champlain College's main website (www.Champlain.edu) which will indicate the semester week and day when Champlain classes will resume online.
• Enter each of your classes and go to the appropriate week of class where you will receive directions from your instructor.
