1. Accessing the e-learning system

When the browser opens (in this example, it is Google Chrome), type the following address: co-ict-learning.aimcy.eu in the address bar and press “Enter”; or if available, click with your mouse e.g. the “Go” button on the right of the address bar.

 

 

The e-learning system will open shortly in your browser.

In a Unit, after its outline, you will notice its content: either text, or practical exercises, or questionnaires:


Opening the first item, it will take you to the text, where you can scroll and read it (right-hand side scroll), or roll over with your mouse and use the controls to zoom-in, or print etc:

 

If you open e.g. a practical exercise of a Unit, the instructions will appear in the same manner:
