When you login, you are taken to the Student Home page of the Portal. All of the content in each section of the portal is displayed in boxes called channels.
- The My Bookmarks channel contains links that provide quick access to important campus resources and can also be customized with your own bookmarks
- Student Email provides links for checking your WildcatMail and setting your WildcatMail to forward to another email address
- The My Calendar channel contains a link to your personal calendar inside WebCT
- You can keep track of events, to-do lists and reminders about upcoming assignments or tests – just like a day planner
- Also, since this calendar is part of the WebCT system, any events that your instructors have entered into each of your course calendars will appear on your personal calendar as well
- Inside the My Course Resources channel are links that take you directly into the WebCT areas for each of your current courses
- If you need to access WebCT courses you took in prior terms, click the My WebCT Home link
- The Administrative Announcement channel will contain important announcements from the Portal’s system administrators
- The Student Announcements channel contains links to each item in the weekly Student Announcements. Clicking on one of these links opens the text of that announcement within the channel
- Lastly, the five-day weather forecast for Chico can be viewed in the Chico Weather channel
