Address Students Concerns with Access
- Please be flexible with students. If access to a laptop, desktop or other personal device is unavailable, students are encouraged to use their phone and email to communicate with instructors. In addition, programs are available to bridge the digital divide by providing low-cost internet service offers, which include free internet for 60 days. Find out more at alamo.edu/covid-19. Please follow the Stay Home / Work Safe order.
Use Zoom to:

- Invite students to the meetings scheduled on the same day and same time as their face-to-face course
- Meet with your classes at the designated day and time
- Record your Zoom sessions
- Post your recorded Zoom sessions in Canvas
- You can start using Zoom here, alamo.zoom.us.
Use Canvas to:
- Support instruction with Zoom
