Course Communication
All student communication to faculty should be done through MC’s office LMS system and MC email. For general questions to instructors about course items and resources, the student should use the “Ask the Instructor” Discussion, found at the top of their discussion board. For questions regarding late assignments, grades or other personal matters, the student should email the instructor through the Canvas inbox or their MC email. Students may expect a response to any inquiries within twenty-four (24) hours. Students may expect feedback on course assignments within seventy-two (72) hours.
