Using Penji

1. Go to Canvas and then click on the Penji icon in the left navigation area.  If you are a new user, you will be asked to agree to the terms of service first. 

2. If the top of Penji shows "Macomb Subject Tutoring" (1), click on Macomb Reading/Writing Tutoring (2) to switch tutoring areas. 

3. Then select either In-person appointment or Zoom online appointment (3). 

4. Select "Join a Subject" and then select "Writing Any Course"

• • Once you select a subject, it will stay in your saved list when you make future appointments. 

  • If you need to add a different subject, you can select "Edit your subjects" to select additional tutoring types.

5. If you are scheduling an in-person appointment, you can filter by location (4) to choose only South Campus or Center Campus.

6. Then click on a time slot (5) to select the time you want to make an appointment with a tutor and click select (6). 

7. Click on the tutor's name and then click "Select".

8. Choose the location/method in which you would like to meet and then click next. (Note: there may only be one option here). 

9. Then fill out the form for your assignment. This will help the tutor understand what kind of help you are looking for and also understand the assignment. Click "Next" when you have completed the form. 

10. Double-check the date, time, and location on the Overview screen, and if everything is correct, click "Complete." 

You will receive an email with your appointment information, but I also recommend adding it to your phone calendar or planner.
