Welcome to the Scientific Communication Course Website (code GEG26J)

It is planned that the course will run on the Borlänge campus and online between Week 4, 2024 (starting Monday 22 Jan) and Week 12, 2024 (ending 24 March).

First, look at these links:

(1) Course Information to access information about the general course contents, assignments overview, teacher information, etc.  Further information, course material, etc will be available to you in the Modules section once you are registered.

(2) Link to the Schedule

Then, click on the links below to access additional information and, if necessary, help (items #6-8):

(3) Official course syllabus

(4) Literature list (all course material will be available via this course website, no need to buy any books)

(5) Campus layout (location of classrooms if you will attend the course on campus)

(6) Support staff's Zoom room - access this Zoom room to speak directly to our support staff if you have questions about eg using the course website, using Zoom, or anything else regarding your studies here (not just this course).  All the support staff are proficient in English. 

(7) Support staff's email -  for questions about applications/registrations, contact the course administrator (please write the course code GEG26J in the subject line of your email)

(8) Specific questions about the course - once registered use the Discussions section (see menu on the left) or before/after registration use the Inbox function (see purple menu, extreme left)

Once you are registered, you will have access to the course material which can be found in the Modules section (which you will see in the menu on the left)

If the arrow in front of the Module name is pointing left, eg:    just click on the arrow so it points down to see the contents, eg:  

Once you have looked at/used the material in a module, I recommend that you 'collapse' that module by clicking on the little arrow so it points left.  In this way, you only have the current module material visible.

It is also recommended that you right click on a document/link/etc and open it in a new tab rather than directly within Canvas (makes navigation easier).
