Seminar Teams

Updated 6/28/2023

Importing a Zoom Meeting will allow instructors to group Seminar sessions together easily. By importing the meeting from the primary course to the secondary course(s), students and instructors can access the meeting through the Seminar link in all associated courses. This includes access to the meeting reports and recordings.

The Disassociate option allows instructors to remove meetings from a course. This preserves the meeting information and is helpful in the event that the incorrect meeting is removed.

For more information on Importing and Disassociating Zoom Meetings, please see the Seminar Teams section.
