Browser Check
Test your system settings to see if it is compatible with iLearn requirements.
Calendar-Schedule
You have access to an on-line calendar through the Schedule tool. Available on the My Home and My Course pages, the Schedule tool allows you to set reminders of important dates and activities
Chat
The Chat tools allow you to communicate via text while on-line at the same time. Using the iLearn Chat tool, you can hold private chats with other students in the course or communicate on group projects.
Classlist
The Classlist provides a list of students currently enrolled in a course.
Content
The Content tool is the main place you will go to get course content.
iLearn Email
iLearn has its own internal e-mail system that can only be used within iLearn. You may forward messages from your TTU account to your iLearn account. However, you can not forward iLearn messages to your TTU account. Your instructor will tell you if you are using the iLearn Email for your class or not.
Discussions
The Discussions tool can be used for online discussions between you and other students and/or your instructor.
Dropbox
The Dropbox tool is an electronic storage space for documents you will be submitting to your instructor. Submissions are date and time stamped.
Grades
The Grades tool allows you to view your grade for the course.
MyHome
My Home is the main entry page for iLearn. It is the first page you see after signing in to iLearn. Like the Course Home page, this page contains a News section. However, this News section is controlled by the iLearn Support Staff and is used for system announcements.
Pager
The Pager allows iLearn users to “page” each other by sending a short text message. The next time that the person being paged enters the course, the pager will flash and beep that a message is waiting.
Preferences
The Preferences tool allows you to change your font settings, paging preferences, discussion room layout, email preferences, and password. Customizing your personal settings is a great way to ensure that you are comfortable in your learning environment.
Quizzes
The quiz tool is where your instructor will post quizzes and homework assignments.
