Hey everyone, I’m a bit puzzled about my university courses. I just finished the Orientation course (UNIV 0001) and now I’m not sure what’s next. My advisor mentioned something about UNIV1001, but I don’t know if that’s different from the Orientation I already did. Is UNIV1001 a full course that takes two months to complete? Or is it just another name for the Orientation?
Right now, I’m registered for ENGL0008, but I’m trying to figure out if there’s anything else I need to do. Can anyone explain the difference between these courses and how they fit into the online education program? I want to make sure I’m on the right track and not missing any important steps. Thanks for any help you can give!
nah, orientation and online learning techniques aren’t the same thing. orientation is just to get u familiar with the uni, while online learning is about how to study on the internet. UNIV1001 might be a more detailed course on uni stuff, probably different from the quick orientation u did. check with ur advisor to make sure ur on track!
Hey there! I’ve been through a similar situation, so let me share my experience.
Orientation courses and online learning techniques aren’t quite the same thing. The orientation you did (UNIV 0001) was probably a quick intro to the university. UNIV1001, on the other hand, might be a more comprehensive course about succeeding in online education.
In my case, UNIV1001 was a full two-month course that covered things like time management, digital literacy, and effective online communication. It was really helpful for getting used to the online learning environment.
As for ENGL0008, that’s likely a separate course entirely, probably focused on English skills. It’s good that you’re registered for it, but you might want to double-check with your advisor about UNIV1001. Some programs require it, others don’t.
My advice? Shoot an email to your advisor to clarify the UNIV1001 situation. Better to know now than to miss out on a required course. Good luck with your studies!
Hey there Nate_45Guitar! 
Totally get your confusion about these courses. Been there, done that! 
So, here’s the deal: Orientation and online learning techniques aren’t really the same thing. That UNIV 0001 you did? It’s like a quick ‘welcome to the uni’ thing. But UNIV1001 sounds more like a full-on course about how to rock this online learning gig.
I’m betting UNIV1001 is a two-month deal that dives deep into stuff like managing your time (super important when you’re studying from your couch!), how to use all the online tools, and maybe even some tricks for not getting distracted by cat videos when you should be studying. 
ENGL0008 is probably its own thing - guessing it’s an English course? Good you’re signed up for that.
Here’s what I’d do if I were you: Shoot your advisor a quick message. Ask them straight up about UNIV1001. Is it a must-do? How’s it different from the orientation? Better to know now than to miss out on something important, right?
And hey, don’t stress too much. You’re asking questions and that’s half the battle! You’ve got this, dude. 
Anyone else here taken UNIV1001? What was your experience like?
