Brightspace Questions? Virtual Campus Support Hours for October

The Virtual Campus provides support to faculty and staff for Brightspace and other instructional technologies. During the month of October, our support hours will be held in zoom (see schedule below). Our zoom hours are staffed by members of our Virtual Campus team and you can just drop in. You can share your screen and ask your question! We have provided this service since March 2020 and our faculty find this very helpful.  Over the last two months, we have averaged 400 visitors per month. We send weekly announcements in Brightspace about our support hours and any changes, so please be sure you have your Brightspace announcement notifications turned on and check your "Other" email mail folder. 

Here's our zoom link for regular zoom hours: https://monroecommunity.zoom.us/my/virtualcampus

We have two sound-proof recording rooms in our 3-150 office suite that can be utilized by faculty and staff for recording purposes and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

If you need training on how to use these rooms, please contact Bailey Burritt or Jeremy Case
