Log In Instructions for Collab, UVa Email and WebAssign

Collab and UVa Email

When you register for the course with SCPS, you will be given a username and password to get access to Collab. Collab is the centrally-supported online collaboration and learning environment (CLE) at the University of Virginia. You will use Collab to access course materials such as the course home page, syllabus, video lectures, chat room, chat room slides, create exam, etc. The course home page also contains important information for you to browse through. You should click on all the radio buttons on Collab and the course homepage to familiarize yourself with all the resources made available to you for PHYS 6060. You also must activate your UVa email address since all official correspondence will be through your UVa email address. You will be automatically assigned a username and password for your UVa email after you have registered for Phys 606. Your personal email address will no longer be used. Please click here for instructions on setting up your UVa email account.

WebAssign

After I get confirmation from the School of Continuing and Professional Studies that you have registered, I will set up a user name and password on WebAssign for you. I will notify you by your personal email and you will be able to log on to WebAssign. You then must learn how to submit homework by taking the "test" on Webassign that teaches you how to use the system. Click here to log on to WebAssign. Now click on the red Log in button on the left of the page. I have changed your previous usernames to conform to your UVa email. Your username is now the same as your UVa email username and I set your password to the same as your username. You may reset your password after you logon. Example of username and password for WebAssign:

UVa email: jas2g@virginia.edu
