If you are having trouble finding the Lab Manual (listening comprehension) activities ...

By default, Quia takes you to the Workbook activities. To find the Lab Manual activities, up in the breadcrumbs section of the page you need to click on the name of the particular chapter you are working on. You will then be able to select either the Workbook or the Lab Manual:

Quia crumbs

I bought the wrong version of the Quia Lab Manual/Workbook.

If you purchased your online book access from the Quia Bookstore within the last 30 days, provide them with the confirmation number that was emailed to you, and they will refund your purchase.  You will then be able to purchase the correct online book access for this class.

If you purchased your online book access from a bookstore, return to the bookstore, plead for mercy, and see if they will allow you to return it. If you have already used the book key you will not be able to return it.

I have the iLrn textbook but I'm having trouble with the course code; my course keeps getting dropped; I can't get to the activities in eSAM; my TA cannot see my scores.

  1. In order for me to see your Quia work, you must complete the exercises using eSAM and not iLrn.
  2. Please review the information in the syllabus which talks about the specifics of using the e-text. (#3, #10 and #11).
  3. You will be creating 2 "courses" or portals on your Student Workstation. Each one has its own unique course code. The first course (eSAM) gives you access to the Quia lab and workbook AND GIVES YOUR TA's access to your answers; the second one (iLrn) gives you access to the e-text. Keep in mind that from the e-text it is possible to access the lab and wb exercises, but in order for us to see your work you must enter the exercises via your eSAM course.
  4. Once you have entered the book key your student workstation will probably look something like this:
    Quia
  5. Enter the associated eSAM course code from the syllabus into the space named "Enter Coure Code"
  6. If it doesn't look like the above, enter the course code into the space provided in the upper right of your student workstationCourseCode
  7. You may then get a warning message (see below). Read that message carefully and then choose both courses. Make the necessary approvals.
