Log In and Technical Assistance

Once registered, students will be provided with a Palliser Google Workspace account. This account will provide many tools offered by Google. This includes GMail, Google Drive (for storage), and Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides for creation. Your Google account will also be used to authenticate (log in) with many web services.

GMail and Google Workplace Access

  • Go to google.ca
  • From the top right corner, select the blue ‘Sign In’ button
  • Username - email provided (usually firstname.lastname@prs26.ca)
  • Password - enter the password provided (first time access - you will be prompted to change this provided password)

Logging into Moodle

When you log into Moodle the first time you will be asked to Google Authenticate. This links your Palliser email @prs26.ca to Moodle, our learning management system that hosts your online course.

  • If you are a new student to Palliser you must have your @prs26.ca account set up before you can authenticate. Credentials will be sent to the external email you have provided during registration
  • Once you have received your @prs26.ca credentials, please log in and follow the instructions provided.
  • Log into your Palliser Gmail account
  • In another tab, Go to moodle.prs26.ca.
  • Log into Moodle using the Google Login button.
  • In Moodle, click the ‘My Courses’ link in the left menu.
  • You should see all of the courses you are actively registered in.

If you are missing a course, please:

  • Ensure all fees are paid.
  • Check your Palliser email for an email from the course teacher.
  • Email Megan Curtis for additional assistance.

Students will need:

  • A computer (not a tablet or phone) as the primary device
  • A reliable high speed Internet connection

It is recommended that students have:

  • A headset with attached microphone
Using Chromebooks - FYI
  • Chromebooks are cloud based devices, so a wifi connection is needed to take full advantage.
  • Because they are cloud based, hard drive space is not as important as RAM; I would suggest nothing less than 4GB of RAM.
  • Chromebooks all have a date when they stop receiving feature and security updates (Auto Update Expiration - AUE), this has just been increased to 8 years, but there are still devices for sale that expire well before that (I found a great deal on a Samsung Chromebook that “expired” in 2022) and the AUE cannot be extended by the user.
  • The Auto Update Expiration of Chromebooks can be found here. This should be looked at prior to a Chromebook purchase being made.

Semester 1 registration is closed

Registrations for semester 2 classes (starting in February) are still being accepted and will be reviewed starting in November.
