The Online Classroom Joining Instructions
The Online Classroom: Zoom
We will be delivering your course through the virtual learning platform, Zoom. Please find the Zoom link, along with the Meeting ID and Password in the initial email we sent you.
Within two weeks of your course starting, you will also receive an email calendar invitation, which will also contain the Zoom link, which you can paste into your browser.
In preparation for your course and in order to benefit from the many features on Zoom, such as live chat, polls and breakout rooms for group activities, we recommend that you download the Zoom app to take advantage of the full experience. You will need to create an account, if you don’t have one already. Please follow the following link for further support and help on downloading Zoom https://zoom.us/support/download.
Further Zoom guidance that may support you, can be found in the ‘How to guide’ here.
Please also remember that to be able to enjoy your virtual classroom environment without any disruption, you will need to be connected to a broadband with a speed of at least 1.2Mbps. You can test your internet speed using this link: https://www.speedtest.net/
