NWCI is transitioning to a new learning format.
Starting November 28th, 2022, all NWCI
locations will utilize classroom set books. This means all content will be removed from
Canvas. Canvas will be used for the following items, project blueprints, rubrics, chapter
reviews, video quizzes, and final exams.
Another significant change will be that no more prework is required before you come
into class. The class times will now be from 6:00 am to 2:30 pm Monday through
Friday. So please plan accordingly.
Here is what to expect when you get to class…
1. When you arrive early for your class, the instructor will hand out iPads and a
classroom set of books to all students. Please do not write in the classroom
books. Any damage to a class set book may result in the student purchasing the
book.
2. After that, all students will log into their Canvas accounts by accepting the course via
email. All invitations will be sent out three days before the start of the class, i.e., if a
class starts on November 28th, the invitation will be sent out on November 25th. We
ask that you accept the course before you come to class on Monday.
3. From there, the course will be conducted using power points, whiteboards, and other
educational tools. As you progress through the course, you will be asked to open your
iPad and complete the assignments the instructor publishes in Canvas.
4. Have a great time learning the content to keep you educated, employed, and our
union strong!!
On a side note, if a student wants to purchase the book to keep, they will need to talk to the
instructor and the program specialist and see if there is extra inventory available for purchase.
We look forward to this new learning style and can’t wait to see everyone soon!
