New LDL Course Participants

Because we use a different online learning platform and engage in a flipped classroom and peer review process, we ask that new LDL course participants complete our New LDL Course Participant Onboarding . See also the Pre-Course Preparation page. Please do not wait until the first day of class to complete these requirements. Attend office hours on the first week of class to ask any additional questions that you might have. You are encouraged to engage with the TAs early in your experience.

Getting Started Tip

If something takes you more than 5 minutes to find or figure out, reach out to a TA or attend the upcoming office hours session.

To get started:

  1. Create an account in CGScholar.
    Use your your real name as it appears in Banner/ U of I Self-Service System so that we can connect you properly when assigning final grades.
  2. Request to join the course community (links below)
  3. Review the Syllabus and related links, including the Course Resources.
