Brightspace Course

Streamline the workflow to schedule and access class meetings and recordings in one place inside your Blackboard Brightspace course.  No need to re-post links to meetings or recordings.  Control access, maximize security and privacy, and provide your students with an easy and consistent path to attend class.  With the Zoom tool in your Blackboard Brightspace course, you need only to schedule your class meetings, and recordings will be automatically available for viewing once they are processed. 

• Add the Zoom tool to your Blackboard Brightspace Course
  
  
• Schedule Zoom Class Meetings
  Be sure to schedule your meetings using the Zoom tool in BlackboardBrightspace.  Because the Zoom tool connects your Zoom account to your Blackboard Brightspace account, you can import meetings that you've scheduled outside of BlackboardBrightspace, if necessary. 
  
  
• Students Activate their UAlbany Zoom Account
  Instruct students to activate their Zoom account and to always log in to your class meetings through your Blackboard Brightspace course (add verbiage to your syllabus in your Blackboard Brightspace course).

• Join Zoom Class Meetings
  Always join the meeting through BlackboardBrightspace to ensure that you have full control and access to the meeting tools that you need to manage student engagement during your class.
  
  
• See How Students will Join Meetings
  Students must login to their UAlbany Zoom account in order to join meetings.  We recommend that students first log in to Zoom prior to clicking the link to join a meeting.  Note, students log in to Zoom separately from BlackboardBrightspace.

When you record to the cloud your recordings can easily be shared with your students.  Your recording link will be emailed to you and, if using the Zoom tool in BlackboardBrightspace, the link will be listed on your Blackboard Brightspace course automatically.
