As College of the Canyons continues to maintain remote support and instruction, the Information Technology Department has curated a list below of suggested equipment that may be useful for working at home during this time.
*Please note that the list below are just a few suggestions, and are not required for remote instruction or support.

Peripherals

Webcams:
Most webcams come with microphones all in one device, and HD webcams can provide better quality videos.

External Microphones:
If you prefer to skip the video, and just have great audio.

Headsets:
Working from home may mean that other sounds cause distractions. Some headsets also come with microphones all in one device.

Network Extenders:
WiFi signal too weak? If you're in a spot in your home where the WiFi signal is not strong enough to support your workflow, a network extender may be useful.

Network Cables:
If you are close enough to your router, and would like a more stable internet connection, you can try directly plugging your computer into your router. Cables come in varying lengths.
