There are three tabs in Account Settings - Account Settings, Discussions, and Email. 

On the Account settings tab (see image) you can change:

• Your password - You can change your password for Learn@UWSuperior here, but it will not change the password for your network account, your UW-Superior E-Mail or your E-Hive.  Changing the password here is for those with visitor or specialty accounts.  If you want to change all your passwords, go to your E-Hive account and change your password there.
• Font settings - Desire2Learn has added a new font, PT Sans, that they recommend we use as our default font.  You can change this in your Account Settings by clicking on the dropdown menu.
• Dialog settings - This tells the system how to treat pop-ups.
• HTML Editor settings - This allows the HTML Editor to be used.  You can turn this off if you use assistive technology such as screen readers because some of the features might be difficult to navigate.
• Video settings - You can optimize video presentations that ensures that assistive technologies can detect videos.
• Your time zone - The default setting is the Americas and Central Standard Time zone, if you are traveling or live in another part of the country or world, you can select the appropriate zone.
• Application settings - There is a new feature called Revoke Access, that will force all your devices and applications to renew their authentication.  This will be helpful if you get a new mobile device and want to deactivate an older one, think it has been compromised, or lose it.

On the Discussions tab (see image) you can change the personal display settings, message list view & style, character limits, and reply settings.

On the Email tab (see image) you are able to add an email signature and show external email addresses in the Address Book.  You will want to select the checkbox next to "Send a copy of each outgoing message to (your username)@uwsuper.edu" if you want to keep a record of messages sent through Learn@UWSuperior.

Note: The emails will come from your UW-Superior address to your UW-Superior address, without showing the recipients of the email.  It will not list of people you sent the email to.

This page allows you to edit your user profile.  The default is set to just your first and last name, you can update this page with as much or as little information about yourself as you are comfortable sharing.  Please remember that when someone looks up your user profile, they will see all this information.

Resources - this dropdown menu has information and links that will help you with your course work and using Learn@UWSuperior (see image).  They include links to:

• JDH Library - This will open the Jim Dan Hill Library's website in a new window.
• Locker - You are able to access your Learn@UWSuperior Locker from this link. (See image)  The Locker is an area to upload and store files in the Learn@UW-Superior system. Files stored in a locker can be accessed from any location as long as you are logged into Learn@UW-Superior. The Locker has a 10MB storage limit.  When uploading files to the locker, it is best to rename files so that the file name contains no spaces and doesn't use special characters.  These special characters are NOT allowed in file and folder names: "   *  /   :   <   >   ?   \   |   '   &   ;   #
