Off-campus Learning

Dear UJ Student

Term 2 will start on Monday, 20 April 2020, and as you have already been informed, all teaching and learning for the term will happen online. If your modules are on Blackboard you must go into each of your modules regularly to check messages, and make sure you do all the activities, assignments and assessments.

During this week (14 to 17 April), we are going to support you in areas you might still need help in getting set up and ready to learn online.

Go through the checklist below to identify any areas in which you still need assistance. Forward your queries to us in any of the following ways:

  • Send an email to uhelp@uj.ac.za.
  • Log into our online learning support module for students in Blackboard to check out all our support resources and to ask your questions by participating in the discussion forum within the module. Go to uLink (ulink.uj.ac.za) then Blackboard then Organisations (directly below Courses).

Stay safe.
The CAT Team
