NBC Online: Dealing with connection problems
Nazarene Bible College is committed to making the online
learning experience successful for you. To ensure this, here are the key technical
requirements:
- You are responsible for your computer system and for choosing an Internet Service
Provider (ISP).
- Should you have difficulty connecting to the Internet, contact the help desk of that Internet
Provider for technical support.
- Should you have technical difficulties when an assignment is due, you are responsible to find
an alternate way to submit your work. This could mean finding another computer to use at work,
at a friend's home, at a public library, at a local college or school, or even at a business that offers
free Internet to its patrons. You may also be able to mail certain assignments or even print them,
scan them or take a photo with your phone and send them that way. NOTE: In any event, when
you are having difficulties submitting an assignment or being to read the instructions online, call
your instructor (Howard Culbertson's cell phone number -- 405-740-4140).
To access NBC's programs from another computer such as one at the public library
or at your workplace or on a friend's device, go to:
NBC Online: http://online.nbc.edu
- If the NBC Online server is having technical difficulties when an assignment is due, use the
alternative arrangements announced by your instructor (in Howard Culbertson's case, use his
e-mail at SNU
There are usually multiple options available for getting on the Internet fairly quickly if the
service you normally use goes down. Such options include:
- Fast-food restaurants such as McDonald's
- Coffee shops including Starbucks and Panera Bread
- Bookstores like Barnes and Noble
- Stores such as Walmart and Home Depot
- Public libraries offer both WiFi and desktop computers connected to the Internet
- Buildings on many university campuses allow you to access the Internet as a "guest"
- Many church buildings now have WiFi
Mobile phones can also be set up as hot spots through which a laptop can connect to the
Internet.
