[Air-L] Free access - JCAL special issue on "Learning analytics in massively multi-user virtual environments and courses"

[Lee, Mark]

I have received a few emails in response to my last message, asking for instructions on how to use the access code. Apologies for neglecting to include this information in the original message; I hadn’t tried using the access code myself and so didn’t realize the process wasn’t intuitive!

I also wanted to take this opportunity to clarify that the access code will provide free access to ALL JCAL articles—not just those in the special issue—for the remainder of the year.

1. You will need to register for an account on the Wiley website at  http://www.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/user-registration if you have not already done so.

2. Log in to Wiley Online Library (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com) with your email and password.

3. Once you have logged in, go to the trial access page within your profile at http://www.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/myprofile/trials. Enter the access code JCALLAK16 in the "Trial Access Code" dialog box, then click "Submit Code."

You should now have access to all JCAL content (not just the special issue). If you encounter any difficulty, please email jcal.specialissues at gmail.com and I will endeavor to assist you.

Kind regards,



Mark
