How to Regain Access to Course Materials: Waymaker
Waymaker Digital Courseware from Lumen Learning
Introducing Waymaker
This course uses Lumen’s Waymaker digital courseware for instructional materials, online practice, and quizzes. Waymaker is very affordable and easy to use. Based on your scores on pretests, self-checks, and quizzes, it provides personalized guidance about where you should focus on strengthening your learning. Because Waymaker uses open educational resources (OER), you can also retain access to the textbook forever.
Accessing Waymaker Course Materials
You’ll access all Waymaker course materials inside your institution’s learning management system (Canvas, Blackboard, Brightspace/D2L, or Moodle).
Log into the course site and navigate to the course content.
Use the “Study Plan” link in any module to access the text and other learning activities. You’ll also see links for quizzes, discussions, and other assignments.
Check out “Succeeding with Waymaker” for a quick overview of how Waymaker works.
If you have opted out of your institution's course materials program, you will see an error message directing you to purchase your course materials from the bookstore.
Paying for and Regaining Access to Waymaker
You'll need to pay for course activation to access your materials and quizzes throughout the course. To do this:
- Purchase a Lumen Learning Activation Code from your campus bookstore
- Enter your Access Code/PIN purchased from the campus bookstore into a Regain Access form.
If you purchase in person, this will be printed on your receipt. Please save your receipt. If you purchase via the online bookstore, this will be emailed to you.
You’re all set!
