+ | This page contains initial info for your assignment as virtual Lab Monitors (referred as LMs). | ||

+ | |||
+ | LM Duty | ||
+ | Lab Monitor is first point of contact in EECS technical services. | ||
+ | As such, LMs help students with all EECS computing related issues. | ||
+ | This does not include helping them with assignments or course-related programming questions. | ||
+ | If LMs do not know the answer to any inquiry/ | ||
+ | and copy monitors@eecs.yorku.ca to inform the team of LMs. | ||
+ | LMs are familiar with the EECS Linux platform in the teaching labs: CentOS, which is the community version of Red Hat. | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | monitors@eecs.yorku.ca contains email addresses of LMs individual email addresses. | ||
+ | This mail list can be used for any shift swaps or other communication as needed. | ||
+ | |||
+ | LM Shifts | ||
+ | Lab operating hours will be respected with utmost care. | ||
+ | LMs review the weekly shifts prior the week, to prevent any delays. | ||
+ | If the LM is late for their shift, they email tech@eecs.yorku.ca to inform the tech staff when they expect to start their shift. | ||
+ | Swapping of LM shifts are allowed. | ||
+ | It is the LM’s responsibility to find a replacement LM in cases they are unable to attend their shift and notify the tech staff. | ||
+ | Refer to Contact information sheet for phone/email details. | ||
+ | This provides an uninterrupted technical service to our community. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Login | ||
+ | You will continue using your EECS student accounts to do your LM duties. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Virtual LM (Zoom account) | ||
+ | During the pandemic of COVID-19, the Fall 2020 term is offered in remote teaching mode. | ||
+ | LMs use “eecstech” Zoom account to communicate with the students. | ||
+ | LMs and users join the meeting ID: https:// | ||
+ | LMs use their employee PPY account login to connect to Zoom (login with SSID). | ||
+ | LMs make themselves available continuously for the duration of their shift. | ||
+ | Breaks for lunch or other needs should be handled before or after shifts. | ||
+ | If necessary, there could be one maximum 10 minute break during which a sign can be posted. | ||
+ | Ex. change your profile pic to a 10 min break sign. | ||
+ | LMs are co-host in eecstech Zoom account. | ||
+ | For the ability to move participants in and out of Breakout Rooms, the LM has to be the host. | ||
+ | Each LM has to assign the LM following their shift as the host. | ||
+ | For this reason, LMs should join the Zoom meetings on time. | ||
+ | If there is a technical issue causing a delay to start on time, please inform your fellow LM. | ||
+ | It is against the policy to make a non-LM participant the host of eecstech Zoom meeting. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Start of Shift (Zoom account) | ||
+ | LMs identifies themselves by renaming their Zoom thumbnail pictures as "Lab Monitor”. | ||
+ | |||
+ | End of shift activity | ||
+ | LM fills-in the Zoom activity sheet (for now in Google as some LMs do not have an employee account yet). | ||
+ | LM reminds the participants that the end time of Zoom meeting, 15 minutes prior to signing off for the day. | ||

+ | EECS accounts and login | ||
+ | Undergraduate students who are registered to 2nd, 3rd or 4th level courses are eligible to an EECS | ||

+ | AFTER 20 minute of wait period to allow for password to propagate, student can login to | ||
+ | https:// | ||
+ | Details are in https:// | ||
+ | |||
