In the past, in the case of inclement weather, we have set up <\/span>Zoom Video Web-Conferencing<\/span><\/a> as an alternate plan for remote teaching. In this case, you could simply send out a Zoom web-conference link to students and they could view it as a group or individually. You could even integrate Zoom in your Moodle course!<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Zoom?<\/span><\/h2>\n

Zoom is an easy to use video web-conferencing solution that provides both video conferencing and screen-sharing capabilities. <\/span>All Swarthmore faculty, staff, and students have access to Zoom\u2014 just go to <\/span>http:\/\/swarthmore.zoom.us<\/span><\/a>. Sign in with your Swarthmore College username and password. All faculty, staff, and students start off with a “Basic” account that allows you to have a conference\u00a0call for 40 minutes.\u00a0If you need a call longer than 40 minutes, we can set up a “Pro” account for you which allows for unlimited minutes.\u00a0You can reach out to Media Services<\/a>\u00a0ahead of time if you’d like\u00a0request a Pro account.<\/span><\/p>\n

Zoom Moodle Integration<\/span><\/h2>\n

Zoom can now be integrated into your Moodle course. This allows your students to be able to see which week you may have a Zoom meeting scheduled. By adding the “Zoom Meeting” activity you can simply add Zoom to any Moodle section. Learn more by clicking the link below.<\/span><\/p>\n
