Get Digital with MS365 Office (Term 2)

Get Digital with MS365 Office (Term 2) In-Person

The Get Digital with MS365 is where you can work on your assignment and develop your skills in the library with support available from Assistive Technology and Digitial Partner.

The online e-sessions take place weekly. Instructions on how to log on to the session will be emailed to you before the session. You can log on from home or any computer on campus. These sessions are not one-to-one tutorials or a structured workshop. It is a space for you to work on your assignments every week during term time with live online support.

You will be able to share your computer screen to show us what you are working on. We use an app called Zoom to screen share. We can communicate via chat or via Audio over the internet. If you wish to communicate with Audio during the screen share session, please ensure you have a Headset with a mic or in a quiet space where you can use your computer's speaker and mic.

We will guide you on how to use Zoom via LibChat when you log on, but you can also see the LibChat Screen Share Guide or this FAQ to see how it works.
