What is Lumen One?

Lumen One is different from other course materials in these ways:

There is no separate textbook. Everything you need is in the course, including an e-Book.
Each Lumen One Study Plan will provide guidance on where to focus your attention. As you complete each module’s Readiness Check, Self Check and quizzes, you’ll get feedback on which areas you need to read and study more.
You earn participation points for completing each Study Plan. To earn the points, you’ll need to complete the Readiness Check and every topic’s Self Check. These assignments are graded for completeness, not for correctness.
You can take graded quizzes more than once. You can take your quiz twice; only the higher score will be recorded.
After your first quiz attempt you’ll receive feedback and opportunity to learn and practice the content before your 2nd or final quiz attempt. Sudying for quizzes help you learn.
Your work on Self Checks, the Readiness Check and the Quizzes help me understand where you may be struggling. I can see how you do on your quizzes and offer individualized help when you need it. I can also see if you are doing the Readiness Check and Self Checks. I’m here to help you!

What is the Lumen Community?

Inside your Lumen One course in [INSERT YOUR LMS], you’ll find a link to the Lumen Community. There, you can interact with students across the country taking the same course. You can get help, browse other students’ questions or find additional learning and support resources provided by Lumen Learning. Here are videos that explain more about the Lumen Community.
