Login to Brightspace for the first time: Click here for instructions on how to logon!
This is where
the webpage for the course is; from now on, you can find all the course information here.
Once you have logged on, explore the course webpage for a while until you feel comfortable that you know where to find things (It may help if you read the syllabus below first).
If you have any technical trouble logging into Brightspace or accessing the course webpage, immediately contact E-Support at 212-220-8126 or at esupport@bmcc.cuny.edu.
Please do not ask me to fix technical problems; unfortunately, I don't have the expertise or systems access- contact E-Support first, and then if the problem is not easily fixed, email me to let me know what problem you are having and what you have done with E-Support so far to try and fix it. Continue to call E-Support until the problem is resolved, and keep updating me about your progress until the problem is fixed.

Put my email address on your email program's accept list:
If you plan on using an email address which is not a BMCC email address, make sure to put my email address profwladis@gmail.com, and the group email list bmccmath104@yahoogroups.com, on your email program's accept list so that my emails to you are not filtered to your spam folder. To find out how to do this, contact your email provider.
