Hi,
I recently started taking an online psychology class as a high school
elective. The class allows me to earn college credit. The class,
unfortunately, is on an online platform called edgenuity.
I started out by taking a pre-test, and I had no trouble navigating
through it, but after that, it took me to a vocabulary lesson, easy
enough right? But, it was an activity where you type the vocab word
into a text box, and take your own personal note of the definition,
which I did. However, after that, it wouldn't let me click next, with
or without voiceover, so my classroom teacher read the
words/definitions to me, then she moved me to the next lesson, it was
a video lecture, separated into 9 different sections. I watched the
first video, took notes, then I clicked next. A window popped up with
a question, and as I was browsing through the multiple choice answers,
the webpage crashed, and forced me to log back in. I tried about 4
more times, using safari, chrome, and firefox, and it still keeps
reloading the page. I can't get past that lecture without answering
that question. I'm really agitated because I've been in this class for
a little over a week, and haven't accomplished anything. What's my
next option? Where do I go from here?
Thanks,
JJ
