Technology Requirements ● To take advantage of all this course has to offer, we ask that students have access to a desktop or laptop computer, a printer, and a stable internet connection. ● Students will also need access to an account in the Zoom app in order to join their live class sessions. Curious about the EXPLO lanyard? All EXPLO course boxes include an EXPLO lanyard. We invite students to wear their lanyard during class as members of our online community. Students are also encouraged to make themselves an ID card for their lanyard - check out the “Make Your Own EXPLO ID” project on the Virtual Quad (accessible via your online dashboard!).
