TCC: Tip of the Day - My Internet Connection Stinks! So Does Theirs!

Many of our faculty and students live in rural areas that do not have access to high speed internet. And, many of us have several people using wifi at the same time, which slows it down.

Here are a couple of simple solutions for you and your students, if you are using Zoom.

1. If you have low bandwidth, turn your video off.

2. Call in to the Zoom room on a phone, and log in on a computer/tablet/laptop. This way if your video is slow or freezes, you can still hear (and they can still hear you). To do this, "Copy the Invitation" on Zoom rather than just copying and pasting the link. This invitation provides a call-in number. If you have questions about this, join virtual office hours. https://monroecommunity.zoom.us/j/672991431
