Tech tip of the Day - Zoom

Using Zoom while remoting into desktops is very slow and choppy. You will have a much better connection if you use your home desktop computer/laptop at home to Zoom. This will also allow Zoom to use your home desktop/laptop's camera and audio capabilities.

To host/attend a Zoom meeting without having to remote into an office computer:

Make sure that you have ZOOM installed on your home desktop/laptop (https://zoom.us/download or see Terry Key's March 17th Daily Tribune article for download instructions). Open Outlook via the Web (mymail.monroecc.edu), go to your calendar and click on the meeting notice. Open ZOOM from your start menu. Click on JOIN MEETING. Put the meeting ID number in from your outlook meeting notice. If you have no microphone, use the phone numbers in the ZOOM meeting notice to call in and participate.
