Schoology & Zoom

Burleson ISD uses Zoom for it's video conferencing needs. The district creates accounts for all teachers and students allowing for Zoom to be integrated within Schoology. 

This integration enables teachers to schedule meetings from within Schoology and enables students to access video conferences from within each course, streamlining the workflow for users.

Zoom can be accessed by teachers and students two ways. 

• Through Clever
  (www.burlesonisd.net > Staff Portal > Clever > Zoom)

• Through Schoology
  Students should access all Zoom meetings through Schoology.

Most Zoom settings are controlled at a district level, however there are settings that teachers can adjust to ensure student video conferences are seamless and well managed. 

Create and Start a Zoom Meeting

Once the Zoom LTI has been added to a course, teachers can schedule Zoom video conferences from within Schoology. 

TIPS: 

• If a class meets at the same time each day, mark the meeting as recurring so that students join the same meeting each day.

• Use the district naming convention when generating meetings. Name, School, Period, Course Name, Date
  (CHS 2nd Period Math 8/31/20)

Recordings

When scheduling a meeting, teachers should always select to Record Meetings automatically In the Cloud. At the end of the meeting, Students will automatically have access to the recording in Zoom.
