Please help us in planning for a successful online class experience for all the students and teachers. Following these guidelines will help our teachers during the class presentation.
- Find a quiet space and dress appropriately.
- Do not eat during class
- Let household members know when and where you will be in class, and ask them not to disturb you.
- Display your full name in your zoom profile.
- Turn on your camera during the class.
- Be aware of your background, lighting, and noise.
- Mute until you are required to talk. Use the Zoom functions to communicate if needed (chat, raise your hand, answer yes/no, etc.).
- Use an appropriate zoom background when possible.
- Turn off/silence cell or house phone when possible.
- Be on time to class.
- Communicate with your instructor (via their preferred communication method listed on the syllabus) if you will be late or if you lose your connection during class.
- Engage with the teacher when appropriate during class. Pay attention! Maintain eye contact with the speaker on the screen.
- Be prepared to take notes (on your computer or in a designated notebook) or to access course material (have textbook, or readings available).
