The TESU myEdison and Moodle classroom: where everything lives

The short answer

Thomas Edison State University runs its online courses in a Moodle-based classroom, which you reach through the myEdison student portal along with your records, registration, and support. Inside a course you find the modules, discussions, and assignment drop boxes, with your grades and rubric feedback in the same place. TESU offers frequent monthly starts and set-length terms, so knowing where things live and reading the syllabus and rubrics on day one keeps a term organized from the start.

myEdison is the hub, the classroom is where you work

Two systems, two jobs. myEdison is your student portal — registration, records, financial aid, and the door into your courses. The Moodle-based course classroom is where the learning happens. Knowing the split saves you looking for an assignment in the portal or a registration task inside a course.

How a TESU course is laid out

A course is organized into modules that hold the readings and activities, the discussions, and the assignment submission areas, with your grades and rubric feedback in the same course. As in any course, the rubric attached to each assignment is the clearest statement of what the graded work needs to do, so read it before you start.

Working a TESU term

TESU runs on set-length terms with frequent monthly start options, so you can begin close to when you enroll but the term itself has real deadlines. Treat the schedule as fixed: read the syllabus early, note the due dates, and work ahead of them so a term does not compress into its final weeks.

Where a tutor fits

We help you work inside the TESU rhythm: understanding a module's assignments, building work to the rubric, and keeping discussions and submissions on time so a term stays under control.
