ACADEMIC LIFE
Adjusting to a new academic system takes time, but understanding how courses are structured and what’s expected of you will help you succeed. This section introduces the key elements of studying at a UK university, including assessment methods, class formats and how to access academic support.
Student expectations for online engagement
Students are expected to actively participate and engage in online classes, delivered over Webex (a videoconferencing platform). This involves:
- Having your camera on for the session
- Responding to questions and instructions from your lecturers
- Using the online chat function, reaction buttons and microphone as necessary
