How do I Access a Remote Course in Zoom?

Students, are you taking a remote course this semester? MCC uses Zoom as our webconferencing tool.  If your are taking a remote course, you'll need to join your course at the designated days and times according to your course schedule. If you are having trouble reading your schedule, please watch this short video on How to Read Your MCC Course Schedule. 

Where do I look for my Zoom Class Link? 

  • Typically, your professor will communicate with you about how to access your course via Zoom through email. Make sure to check your MCC email. 
  • Your professor may have also created a link in your Brightspace course to your Zoom class. It may be labeled "Zoom Class Meetings" or something similar and may be listed in the course's "Content" area. 
  • You can also check your Course Information Sheet that may be posted in Brightspace. 

Do I need to use MCC's zoom account to access my course? 

  • Depending on how your professor set up your course zoom link, you may be required to login with your MCC zoom account. Sometimes you may not and you will enter the zoom classroom without having to log in.
  • Give your self a few extra minutes on the first day to figure out where you need to be. Your professor will review their expectations on the first day of class. 
  • All students have access to our free MCC zoom account. You can access your own zoom account by going to monroecommunity.zoom.us and using your MCC email and password. 

What's the best way to access Zoom?

  • You can access Zoom on a computer (with a webcam) or mobile device. If you are using Zoom a mobile device, we recommend that you download the free Zoom app. If you are accessing Zoom on your computer, you can access Zoom through your computer's web browser or you can download the Zoom client for easy access. 

Where can I get help with using Zoom?
