The Ohio University Without Boundaries
Master’s of Leadership in Educational Administration Student Tutorial

Introduction

The online component of the Master's of Leadership in Educational Administration program offers students the opportunity to use Internet technologies to interact with faculty and other students. The Web site brings together a robust set of tools functions that allow students to participate in the virtual classroom in much the same way that they do in a traditional "on-site" class.

Learning how to navigate and fully use the site is key to successfully completing the assignments for each "project". This tutorial begins by describing the "MLEA Program" area. The majority of the tutorial, however, explains how to use the pages associated with the MLEA Projects.

The tutorial for each section is initially organized according to the user-interface display. An introduction introduces the concept or feature and offers a visual of what will be discussed. The specific functions or concepts are listed in the light gray cells to the left of the screen, while the explanation is described in the white cell to the right of the screen.
