"Do It Yourself" Technology Tips...
Most of the issues with your online component can be fixed on your own. Here are some tips BEFORE you contact the tech support:
Clean the browser's history/cache/cookies, etc. and "restart" BEFORE login in to any website: online component, Canvas, and or CLC's website. Consider restarting your computer or the device to avoid any issues. Yes, restart a Mac computer, too! 2. “MIND YOUR MIND” Saving passwords online may not be a good idea. Especially, if you need to do an online test on a public computer. (Typing a password will help your brain active and ready!) 3. CLOSE AND RESTART. Delete ALL history/cache/cookies, etc. BEFORE closing the browser(s), when you are done (and whenever possible). Close all the programs and -especially- turn off the computer if you are done working for the day.
