Different people have different ways to maximize productivity.
Cowork McGill is a platform where McGill students can try booking video sessions with another random McGill student to create a distraction-free cowork experience. It is restricted only to students with a valid McGill Zoom account. The website draws inspiration from FocusMate, a site that randomly pairs people to 50-minute virtual coworking sessions.
Before entering the website, make sure you are logged into Zoom using McGill's Single Sign-on (SSO).
