GeorgiaVIEW Tips

Technical

Browsers:

  • Preferred web browsers for GeorgiaVIEW/GoVIEW are Google Chrome and Firefox - the latest versions, as well as Microsoft Edge.
    • For Mac computers, latest version of Apple Safari
    • Internet Explorer (IE) is not supported by D2L anymore. 

Course Work

  • Recommend your students to compose assignments within Microsoft Word, then copy and paste the text or attach the document to the assignment. It will help them to avoid timing-out and losing their work. Lost compositions are NOT recoverable.
  • To minimize issues while taking a quiz, ask your students to clear browser’s cache and cookies
