Project Details
This resource is designed to help students in Professor Voigt's courses. In this course, you will be presenting and working collaboratively in a virtual meeting room using Zoom. Zoom is a full-featured web conferencing tool that can be used on desktops, laptops, and mobile devices. It supports video and audio over the Internet, document and screen sharing, and more. All WSU students can create and host their own Zoom rooms. If you are new to Zoom, here are the directions (Sign in to Zoom) to get up and running in Zoom. The following directions provide instructions for scheduling a Zoom Meeting with additional resources for participating, presenting, and creating a Zoom meeting room. Note: If you have used Zoom in the past or have used the encrypted version of Zoom it may be necessary to uninstall these older versions as we require you to be on a current version of Zoom.
Scheduling a Zoom Meeting
Use the Zoom web portal to schedule a Zoom meeting. Configure the meeting to meet your needs. Schedule standalone, recurring, and persistent meetings. Assign alternative hosts, add a password, pre-build breakout groups, and more.

Timing
Single meeting
The New Meeting screen defaults to a single meeting, starting at a specific date and time, and lasting for a set duration.
Recurring meeting
Select the Recurring checkbox if you wish to schedule multiple meetings at specific times, lasting for a set duration, but that repeat daily, weekly, or monthly.
Persistent meeting
Select the Recurring checkbox and select No Fixed Time from the Recurrence menu to create a meeting that never ends. This is a popular choice for instructors who want to create a persistent room for a course that they can use for multiple purposes (e.g., class meetings, office hours).
