About Conferences

View Faculty Instructions

  • How to Use Conferences
  • Pop-up window blocking software must be disabled before accessing conferences.
  • Conferences are threaded, written, shared communications that allow all members of the group to read, receive, and write messages in a secure, virtual space not accessible to those who are not members of the class. 
     
  • Class discussions take place here, in writing, over the course of days.
     
  • The chronology and logic of a discussion is saved and can be followed at any time.
     
  • Threading is achieved in WebTycho through the use of Main Topics and Responses. The Topic Thread is displayed at the end of each conference note with the most recently added note at the bottom of the list.

  • Files may be attached to conference notes.
     
  • Faculty members create conferences.  All members create Main Topics and Responses.
     
  • Faculty set the status, or permissions, for each conference. Status may be changed at any time to Read and Write, Read Only, or Respond Only.

WebTycho Support does not support third party software. This includes virus-protection, e-mail services, ISPs, browsers, word processing and any other software not developed by WebTycho. To use the third-party software, you must agree to the terms and conditions imposed by the third party provider and the agreement to use such software will be solely between you and the third party provider. However, because browsers required for use with WebTycho, we provide limited assistance in configuring browsers specifically for that purpose.
