The Discussions tool can be used for online discussions between you and other students and/or your instructor.
Dropbox
The Dropbox tool is an electronic storage space for documents you will be submitting to your instructor. Submissions are date and time stamped.

Grades
The Grades tool allows you to view your grade for the course.
MyHome
My Home is the main entry page for MyVolstateOnline. It is the first page you see after signing in to MyVolstateOnline. Like the Course Home page, this page contains a News section. However, this News section is controlled by the MyVolstateOnline Support Staff and is used for system announcements.
MyVolstateOnline Email
MyVolstateOnline has its own internal e-mail system that can only be used within MyVolstateOnline.
Pager
The Pager allows MyVolstateOnline users to “page” each other by sending a short text message. The next time that the person being paged enters the course, the pager will flash and beep that a message is waiting.
Preferences
The Preferences tool allows you to change your font settings, paging preferences, discussion room layout, email preferences, and password. Customizing your personal settings is a great way to ensure that you are comfortable in your learning environment.
Quizzes
The quiz tool is where your instructor will post quizzes and homework assignments.
