Zoom is a digital tool for online teaching and meetings. It’s also a great tool for you to meet and collaborate with your classmates. As a student you can both participate and host a meeting. This is a guide to the most common functions in Zoom. As a student you login to Zoom using your Umu-id.
Click the link you received in the invitation. The invitation should also state who is hosting the meeting and time of the meeting. First time using Zoom? See above.
You can invite participants via a link or directly from your Zoom room. The link to the meeting can be sent in an email or published in a learning platform.
You can record a meeting, save it to your computer and upload it to your learning platform via UmU Play. Please remember to inform the other meeting participants that you will be recording and how you intend to use the recording.
As a host (which is most often the person who invited to the meeting) or a co-host, you access more controls than what the participants have. You can, for instance, give someone the right to speak if they raise their hand.
