VCEA Student FAQ and Zoom Room
A new frequently asked questions web page has been developed to help students with their questions about Voiland College’s transition to online delivery.
Students can send their questions to vcea.covid19@wsu.edu or join a live Zoom Room for assistance (9 am to 2 pm thru Friday, April 10).
Free Tutoring Available
Voiland College tutors are available via Zoom. VCEA Tutoring Services is available for students using the same schedule as before. Students can search the schedule by subject, class number, day of the week, or tutor. Then, they can enter the tutor’s zoom room during the tutor’s shift by clicking on the words “click here” under the tutor’s name.
If they chose, faculty members can add a link to their Blackboard class space(s) to the tutoring schedule for student convenience.
Tutoring Services is also available for workshops, to support faculty for recitations, and other services. Students and faculty members who would like to request support can contact Becky Dueben at rdueben@wsu.edu or 509-336-9417.
