Zoom, a cloud-based technology, allows faculty, staff and students to have interactions in real time from their computers, laptops, or mobile devices. Zoom's web-based conferencing uses video and audio and is accessible on MacOS, Windows, iOS and Android mobile devices. Zoom also includes free telephone bridging, so you can bring in participants via telephone as well. The Zoom recording feature will allow you to save a session for future reference and download the MP4 recording to your computer
Zoom is integrated with AsULearn, so you can add a Zoom meeting directly from your AsULearn course using the information below. Zoom meetings can be also be recorded to the Zoom cloud, and hosts receive an email from Zoom with a share link after the meeting ends. These cloud recordings are retained for 120 days, but can be downloaded at any time. Users can always check the operational status of Zoom.
All Appalachian users (faculty, staff and students) can create an unlimited number of Zoom meetings, with up to 300 participants in each. Log in to Zoom via our custom Zoom Portal to be added to our Zoom pro license.
To learn more about Zoom, use their excellent and constantly-updated support site (with our license, all of our Zoom activities are 'Meetings'). You can check out your system or device by connecting to Zoom's standing open meeting room.
