1. Go to your class site

You should navigate to the class in Myplace that you are adding the activity to and Turn Editing On

2. Add an activity or resource

Select the Zoom Meeting activity and click OK

3. Activity Settings

There are a number of settings:

• Name: this should clearly describe the purpose of the meeting activity (e.g. Tuesday Lectures). You may wish to include the Password for the meeting here so students can see it from the course page
• Description: Further details 
• When: If the meeting is a one-off meeting you can specify the times. If you want to re-use the space (e.g. for scheduled lectures), tick the Recurring box.

• Password: A random password that participants need to enter is generated but you can change this to a different one. A password is mandatory.
  

  At present the Password is not  displayed to participants.

  Whilst the password might be embeded in the Join Meeting link, this might not always be the case, and as the Host it is up to you to ensure that this detail is made available either in the Activity name or description.

  
  

• Host Video: On
• Participants Video: This is up to your choice, for a lecture you may wish this disabled
• Audio Options : The default is VoIP & Telephony
• Mute upon entry: Checked
• Meeting Options:
  • Enable join before host: Unchecked
  • Enable waiting room: This will allow you hold the participants outside of the main room until you are ready for them (see Zoom Support Site for more information)
  • Only authenticated Users:  Checked. This will force students to log in to Zoom. This is recommended, especially if you are pre-assigning breakout rooms. Y
• Alternate Hosts: Normally the user who creates the meeting is the Host and has to start the meeting. You can add the email address of other users who may start the meeting on behalf of the Host.

Once you have set the meeting parameters click on the Save and return to class or Save and display

4. Schedule meeting for

In the activity setting, there is an option that allows you to schedule a meeting on behalf of another user who has assigned you scheduling privilege.

• Schedule meeting for: Choose the user you want to Schedule For from the dropdown menu. The user will become the host.

Note: The user who will be doing the scheduling needs to be enrolled in Myplace class by tutor to be able to schedule meetings on behalf of other users.

If you needed to change the host, on your class page select Edit settings from the dropdown menu.

• In the activity setting, check Change host.
• Choose the user you want to Schedule For from the dropdown menu.
