Getting Started

Welcome to [Insert Course Title]!

Use this Getting Started page to introduce your students to your course and to highlight key information from your syllabus.

You can record a short video to introduce students to the course. You can provide the link to your video here or embed it as seen in this section. To replace the embedded video on the right, click on the < / > symbol on the bottom right of this window to go to the html editor. Then search (Ctrl-F or Command-F) for the video URL "uci.yuja.com." Replace the URL with your own video link.

There are extra blank sections at the bottom of this page for you to use. To replace the icon on the left, visit the Material Design Icons Website to search for an icon you like (all icons are free for commercial use and open source), download it as a white .PNG 48 file, click insert image and upload your image to the icons folder. Resize to 25x25 by dragging the corner of the icon. If you do not need the extra sections just place your cursor in the gray box and hit backspace until everything you don't need disappears.

Required Technologies

Duo: Dual-Authentication set up

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), also known as two-step or 2-factor authentication, adds a second layer of protection to your UCI account in addition to your UCInetID and password. It adds something you have (a MFA device) to something you know (a password) to verify it is you and grant you access. This extra layer prevents anyone but you from logging in to your account, even if they know your password.

Duo, a program that intends to protect a user’s data by requiring users to log in to websites like Canvas and Microsoft office 365/Adobe/zoom access using both a password and an alternate device, is mandatory for students by the University.
