What technology do I need for online classes?You'll need to use a device with a microphone and a web cam that is able to access the internet. Most laptops, tablets and phones come with built-in camera and microphone these days. If you enroll multiple learners in one class, each should have their own device.Some of our classes require the use of a printer to print out materials. For reliable video chat, the most important thing is to have a reliable internet connection. Faster is better, but most DSL and Cable internet plans will be sufficient. If you want to test your internet connection speed, you can do so using Speedtest.net. A suggested minimum speed for reliable video chat is 1Mbps for both upload and download. LYHA integrates with an app called Zoom as its video chat platform. Zoom works with all kinds of devices and operating systems. If you want you can read more about the Zoom technical requirements, but you don't need to - for 99% of people, it just works. Families from all over the world are able to use Zoom, but there are a few countries or regions in which it is not supported due to regulatory reasons. You can find an up-to-date list of these countries here. Flexible schedule classes Flex-classes don't have any pre-scheduled meeting times. In general, communication occurs through email, discussion forums, or other websites, so there are no particular technical requirements.
