Technical Considerations for Online Learning

We look forward to your participation in online classes. Please keep in mind the following tips:

Check your technology needs and internet access before registering. Visit Zoom.us, the free online meeting platform we’re using, and review the system requirements. You will need a device (computer, laptop, iPad, iOS or Android phone), preferably with a camera and microphone. A reliable internet connection is critical for class participation. Refunds will not be issued for personal technology malfunctions.

Take advantage of free Zoom training with our staff and volunteers. We will walk you through how to participate effectively in classes.

Plan for a realistic online learning schedule. Online classes require significant attention and energy! Although class periods are separated by 15-minute breaks, we still recommend minimizing the number of immediately-consecutive classes on your schedule.
