Zoom
Zoom allows instructors to schedule live meetings with students in MyCourses. Benefits of Zoom meetings include:
- Instructors can use video, audio, and screen sharing to deliver content to students who can respond using video and audio.
- Instructors can record their Zoom meetings for students to review at a later time. Recordings are automatically available in Kaltura.
- Scheduled Zoom meetings are automatically added to the MyCourses course calendar.
- Instructors can setup appointment availability for office hours. Students can select an appointment time based on the instructor’s availability. Appointments are not added to the MyCourses calendar.

Zoom is fully integrated with MyCourses and instructors can add Zoom to a MyCourses course at any time.
Calendar Integration
Our Zoom integration allows meetings scheduled inside MyCourses to be automatically posted to the MyCourses Calendar.
