    • Enter the meeting date, start time, and duration- Student meetings are limited to 40 minutes.
    • Meeting ID- leave as “Generate Automatically.”
    • Password- you can require one or leave it blank.
    • Video- these are settings for how the host and participants will first enter the meeting. They will be able to turn on/off their video once they are in the meeting.
    • Audio- you’ll want your participants to connect via Computer Audio, but you should leave the setting to allow for both Telephone and Computer Audio, just in case someone has issues with their microphone/speakers.
    • Under Meeting Options- you’ll decide if you want participants to enter the session before you, if you want them to join the session muted, and if you want the session automatically recorded.

    • Under Share in the middle, you can share your screen or have others share their screen.
    • Under More, you can find how to record your Zoom call and more.
Please submit a ticket if you need further assistance.
