Boston College Students, Faculty, and Staff

You can use your 糖心vlog直播平台 credentials to register for and sign into Crossroads courses.听 Note that Crossroads courses are on a different Canvas system than the one 糖心vlog直播平台 uses for it's regular for-credit courses, so you will not see Crossroads courses together with your other courses in the Canvas Dashboard.听 Also, you will need to sign in by going to https://bcweb.bc.edu/canvas/catalog/ rather than through Agora or other links you use to access your regular 糖心vlog直播平台 courses.

Troubleshooting

If you've been able to sign into your course in the past, but are having trouble now:

• Although this can be frustrating and embarrassing, the reality is that in 9 out of 10 calls we receive for help with this problem, the participant was not spelling their email address or password correctly.听 Slow down, take a deep breath, use your glasses if you need them, and make sure you've entered your email and password perfectly.
• If you use a browser feature or other software that remembers your logins for you and auto-fills them, sometimes those features can pick up a bad memory somewhere.听 Try entering the information by hand to make sure it is all going in correctly.
• If it still doesn't work, a phone call may be the best help at 617-552-4075, or describe the difficulty in detail in an email to crossroads@bc.edu

听

If you are new to taking Crossroads courses:

• The most common reason new people have trouble signing in with their password is due to their not having a password.听 Make sure you check your email for an email from Canvas Catalog at Boston College (including your junk mail folder) for the email that confirms your account and lets you create your password.
• If another person, such as a school or parish administrator set up your account, they might not have told you that you will need to check for this email.
• If you signed up for a course yourself, but didn't receive the confirmation email, this may be due to creating your account with an error in your email address.听 If this happens, please contact us at 617-552-4075, or provide us with a detailed description of the problem at crossroads@bc.edu

To reset your password, go to听https://bcweb.bc.edu/canvas/catalog/听and click on 鈥淔orgot Password?鈥� just below the Login ID field.听 On the following page, enter the email address that you used to register for the course and click 鈥淩equest Password.鈥澨� You should receive an email from Canvas at Boston College containing a link that will direct you to a page allowing you to create a new password.听 Once you have created the new password, return to听听and enter your email address as your Login ID along with the new password.

If you find that you are lost at any time throughout the course, you can always return to the course鈥檚 main home page by clicking on "Home" in the left hand menu and then clicking on the name of the course in the top left corner.听听

A second way to access the home page of a course is to click on "Courses" in the maroon left hand column, then selecting the course from the list that pops out.

All of the course content is organized in a linear way and you can navigate the pages using the arrow buttons at the bottom of each page. If you are trying to get from one discussion to the next one in the same course week you can use the "Next" button as shown here.

The left side menu also contains links to each of the discussions for a given week, under "Conversations."

Before the discussion opens

Each week鈥檚 Discussion threads will become available on Wednesday of the respective week.听 Participants will have access to all of the听Coursework听for each week throughout the entire course (e.g. introductory comments, readings, videos), but the Conversation Topics themselves will only become available for posting starting on Wednesday of the respective week.听

If you are interested in working ahead of the current week, we recommend writing and saving your comments in a document file to copy and paste into the Conversation Topics once they become available.听 The Discussion Questions for each week are included at the bottom of the weekly Introductory Comments pages.

After the discussion closes

In order to receive a Certificate of Active Participation at the end of a course, participants must post a minimum of three messages of substance in each weekly discussion of content.听 Each week鈥檚 Conversation Topics are open for two weeks (e.g., Week 1鈥檚 conversation would close at the start of Week 3).听 At the end of the two weeks, the discussion will be closed for comment, and any messages posted after that time will not contribute toward certification.

While the discussions are closed for further comments, they will be available for viewing for the duration of the course in order to allow participants to review earlier conversations.

Certificates are automatically generated听for qualifying participants in PDF format within a month after the course site has closed. Qualifying participants will receive a message through Canvas informing them when the certificate is ready. In order to access your certificate:

1. Click on "Dashboard" in the left hand column.
2. Click on "Completed" beneath the 糖心vlog直播平台 logo
3. There will be links to View and Download your certificate above the Crossroads logo next to the course entry.
