As an instructor for a First Day\/Inclusive Access course, you will need to add the First Day Course Materials (FDA) tool link in your Blackboard Ultra Course Content area so that students can choose to opt-out of the program during the designated period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If an instructor intends to use solely the Macmillan eBook, students will use the FDA tool link to view the content as well as opting-out of the book fee should they decide to drop the course.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If instead the instructor intends to utilize Macmillan courseware through the Achieve platform, then students will use the FDA link solely to opt out of the Macmillan resources fee should they decide to drop the course.  Students will then access Macmillan resources including the eBook and all associated courseware through specific links the instructor will create in the Course Content area using the Macmillan LTI Advantage Course Tools<\/a> in the Content Market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
