Important Tips on Using Zoom in a Classroom

A Zoom meeting is best conducted using your personal computer or laptop from a quiet location, such as your home office or a dedicated meeting room. However, there may be situations where you need to host or join a Zoom meeting from a classroom.

When using Zoom in a classroom, you may choose to use either your personal laptop or the classroom PC. If you are on campus and need to use the cameras, microphones, or other installed classroom technology, you must use the classroom PC. 

Whichever way you choose, here are some tips to ensure a smooth meeting:

• Not all classrooms are the same. Even though we try our best, not every classroom is built the same way. Before conducting a Zoom meeting in a new classroom, make sure to check it out beforehand to ensure that everything you need is in working order. Test your Zoom meeting video and audio ahead of time while you are in the classroom. 

• If you are recording the meeting, choose to record the video to the cloud so that your recorded video will be stored safely in YuJa.
