Important Note

On Original courses, oftentimes, the "Add Students" button on meeting options do not work. If you encounter this issue, you should either add students with their email addresses one by one or, if you have a larger class, you can copy all their email addresses from the students list and paste them all at once.



During the setup process, when you’re asked to log in to your Microsoft account, make sure to log in using your MEF account. If Microsoft asks for an authenticator code during the login process, contact IT at itsupport@mef.edu.tr.
