Heritage College and Seminary has introduced a new method of lesson delivery through our connected classrooms. As of Winter 2020, we are using Zoom as the connected classroom software platform. With Zoom, remote students can connect in via a computer with a webcam, laptop, tablet, or smartphone. Virtually any device that has internet access can be used to connect in.
Quick Start
The easiest way to connect to a classroom is to click the meeting link. They look like this.

The meeting link is provided on the course page in myHeritage. Look in the Links section. Click on the link and follow the on-screen instructions. Your computer, smartphone, or tablet will attempt to download the Zoom App, install it and connect to the meeting.
For Assistants
The connected classroom system uses a number of hardware components (camera, microphones, touchscreen controller) and software (Zoom, Teams, Fuze, etc.). A few minutes before each class please ensure that the hardware is turned on and working properly, and then connect it to the software conferencing platform on the in-room computer.
During the class, please monitor the remote students to ensure they can see and hear, and to note any problem they may experience.
