Join us in discovering the possibilities Zoom has to offer for teaching online lectures, facilitating discussions, hosting office hours, and more.

Zoom is a video conferencing application that can be used to conduct live online lectures and have meetings with your students. Features that will allow you to engage with your students remotely include: screen sharing, a virtual interactive whiteboard, polling, feedback through reactions, chat and breakout rooms for smaller discussions.

This workshop is geared towards those who are new to Zoom in an instructor role within the Faculty of Arts.

  • Run an online lecture using Zoom and manage participants using the Waiting Room
