  8. I do not have a webcam with a microphone on my home or work computer. What can I do?

    You do not need a high-end webcam in order to participate--there are decent webcams for as low as $20.00. You can plug in most webcams by using an USB port and downloading the software for that particular webcam.

    You might also want to consider getting a headset with a microphone, which can help minimize background sounds and improve the quality of your learning experience. Headsets are not required but many participants find them helpful.
