Types. If you recall, content is the stuff you have to read, watch, listen, and interact with prior to completing your assignments. The good news is in an online course you generally have the ability to study and review the content as much as you need to master the material prior to completing an assignment. Some examples of online course content include:
Case studies are one way instructors will teach you concepts and assess your understanding of those concepts. In a face-to-face classroom, an instructor might hand out a piece of paper with a few paragraphs for you to read along with instructions for an assignment. In the online classroom, case studies can leverage technology to make your learning experience more interactive.
You may choose to install the Microsoft Authenticator app for iOS or the Microsoft Authenticator app for Android on a tablet, and use it in addition to (or instead of) a mobile phone. If you use Office 365 apps on your tablet, you may find it convenient to have the Microsoft Authenticator app on your tablet. Having the Microsoft Authenticator app on a tablet in addition to a phone is a good idea, so you can use your tablet to authenticate in case you get a new phone or new phone number.
We suggest you download and configure the Microsoft Authenticator app for iOS or the Microsoft Authenticator app for Android before you leave. With it you can sign in without receiving a text message. If your phone is connected to the Internet, you can approve sign-ins via notifications. If your phone is not connected to the Internet, the Microsoft Authenticator app can still generate codes that you can use for authentication.
If you have configured a second authentication factor (like the Microsoft Authenticator app for iOS or the Microsoft Authenticator app for Android) you can add your new number (even an international number) at You should then remove your old number if that number will not be in your control. If you have already gotten a new phone number and did not previously configure a second authentication factor, please contact the Help Desk.
If you move your phone number to your new phone, you will continue to receive text message verification messages to that number on the new phone. We recommend you add the Microsoft Authenticator app for iOS or the Microsoft Authenticator app for Android to your new phone as well.
