What you need to succeed in your online classes

by Leave a Comment

By Michael Balsamo, Dean of Learning Resources

Macomb’s campuses may be closed for the time being thanks to COVID-19, but the college is virtually open for learning. Our new Virtual Campus on www.macomb.edu is your one-stop-shop for everything we offer online!

Get information on what tech requirements you need for online classes, how to get your textbooks and what online classes will be offered in the fall. You will also find information on how we’re virtually delivering  Student Support Resources to students.

Did you know that our Reading and Writing Studios are currently providing live tutoring online from 10 am to 4 pm, Monday through Thursday? And you can meet “face-to-face” with staff from both Career Services and the Office of Veteran and Military Services using Microsoft Teams on Office 365 – available free to students!

And after COVID-19, the Virtual Campus will still serve as your resource for online learning at Macomb.

If you have any questions about the Virtual Campus or online Student Support Resources, please email askanadvisor@macomb.edu.
