Scheduling Your Classroom Zoom

**Please note this is a change of recommendation. Previously the recommendation was to use the Personal Meeting Room. Now that the RCSD has the licensed version of Zoom, Alternative Hosts is (will be) an option, but ONLY on a scheduled meeting that generates a unique meeting ID. It is NOT available using Personal Meeting Room. (PMR)

Scheduling a recurring meeting with no fixed time for your class. creates a unique meeting room ID AND allows for Alternative Host. The room can be opened and closed at any time and will always remain on the front page of the Meetings Tab. The teacher then gives the students the join link and times to participate via Google Classroom, Seesaw, email, or the calendar invite feature.

When to Schedule a meeting:

Online Classroom(s)
Meeting with colleagues
Meeting with parents
Need a private room that only person invited can join to waiting room.
Stream a live event to youtube or facebook

Getting the Link to your Students

Either:

Copy and paste the invite link into Google Classroom, Seesaw, or via email.

OR

Copy and paste the Meeting invite with the ID, Passcode and Join Link and put it in Google Classroom, Seesaw, email, or a calendar invite.
