Laulima Orientation
Technology Requirements:
Computer Requirements:
Internet Connection:
Broadband Internet – Cable, DSL, & Fiber. We do not recommend dial-up, satellite, or mobile hotspot connections due to their limited bandwidth. Limited access is possible through smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices (mobile technologies not recommended for graded work).
Important Browser Notes:
- Internet Explorer/Edge issues. Due to the customized nature of the Internet Explorer/Edge web browsers and the way they interact with Laulima, we do not recommend using it for submitting work or taking tests in Laulima at this time.
- Web browser recommendation. The web browser we currently recommend is Mozilla Firefox . While other browsers should work with Laulima (eg. Safari), we find that Firefox is the most compatible. When updating or first using a web browser, we recommend clearing the web browser cache first.
Additional Hardware:
Many classes require web conferencing so access to a webcam and microphone is recommended.
Recommended Software Plugins:
Additional “plugins” may be required to open documents and multimedia files.
- Adobe Acrobat Reader (PDF Files)
- Windows Media Player (Windows)
- VLC Player (Windows and Mac)
