Microsoft Academic Alliance Software FAQ


Many technology courses have computing requirements above and beyond other online courses you may have taken. Please review this page for the class(es) you are considering to insure you have the computing power to successfully start the course.

If you are taking an online class, you must have a stable Internet connection/access and an email account. Many instructors will prefer you have DSL or Cable as they may require you to download large files or view videos. You should also have a Zip disk or USB Flash/Thumb driveto save your work if you intend on using Lakeland'sopen labs. If you are working on you own computer, I would suggest saving to your hard drive. If you intend on transporting your work, the USB drive is a great method and also a great way to backup your work.

Please be aware that it is the students responsibility to know how to use a compression (zip) program. If you are unfamiliar with thisoperation, please practice well before your assignments are due so you will not endanger your grade. (See the link to tutorials, below)
