Tips for Online Courses

Use Google Calendar to Keep Track of Meeting Times

• If your courses are using webex, you will receive a link to use for each of your meetings.
• Keep track of these links by making an event for each class, tutoring session, etc. and pasting the link under the event description to stay organized.
• Send reminders for each of these “events” to ensure you get to class on time.

Be Mindful of Online Etiquette

• Wear headphones, if possible, to limit feedback and eliminate outside noise.
• Mute yourself when not talking.
• Be in a well lit area if you are video-conferencing.
• Try to create a professional background for one-on-one meetings and limit other people from walking in and out of the space.
