Quest for Online Success
What is Quest?
Quest, short for Quest for Online Success, was a training resource developed in 2016 by the Online Education Initiative (OEI) to help California Community College students prepare for online learning. In the past, LPC offered a Quest training to students through a non-instructional Canvas shell, supporting over 19,000 students.
LPC's Quest Canvas training was recently retired, as our college now utilizes more up-to-date, local resources to support students, including our:
- Online orientation students complete in MyPortal as part of our Steps to Register
- Online Learning information and Canvas Tutorials readily available to all prospective and current students on our website
- Student Support Hub in Canvas
- Optional Orientations to Online Learning at LPC
LPC instructors who teach online are also encouraged to:
- Send students welcome letters before the course begins with tips to successfully get started
- Embed tutorials that help students understand how to navigate Canvas and succeed as an online student in a course orientation module
- Optional templates are available
