Courseload: Your Gateway to eTexts

Attend from Anywhere!

divider

Is your course using an eText this summer? If so, you won’t have to buy a separate textbook; instead, follow the Courseload link in your class’s Oncourse site to get to your eTexts. The Courseload interface allows students easy ways to highlight, take notes, bookmark, and even share annotations with classmates. Instructors can also add markups to guide students through their course materials. Plus, students can post questions and get them answered! There’s even an app through Google Chrome to read and mark up texts when you don’t have an internet connection.

To get help navigating your eTexts in Courseload, see our training documentation at http://kb.iu.edu/data/bbao.html, or register for an online training presentation:
