Using Zoom
MTH 435/535 — Spring 2020
(last update: 4/2/20)

Below are some comments about using Zoom, in no particular order.
You are encouraged to suggest changes or additions to this list.

Class Meetings:

• Zoom can be accessed from within Canvas.
• You should also be able to go directly to the OSU Zoom portal and login with ONID credentials.
• Class Zoom meetings are listed under Upcoming Meetings.
  There are two Canvas URLs, an old URL and a new URL.
  Class meetings will only show up on the site where they were scheduled... If you don't see them, try the other URL.
• The Meeting ID should be available within Canvas as a course announcement.
• Once you have the Meeting ID, you can join from any device running Zoom, without logging in to Canvas.
  However, you will have to login to Zoom using ONID (SSO) credentials.
• The same Meeting ID will be used for all class meetings.
• Please do not share this Meeting ID with anyone else.
• Class meetings will be recorded, and should appear on Canvas (under Cloud Recordings) within 24 hours.

Office Hours:

• A separate Meeting ID for office hours has been posted in a Canvas announcement.
  This announcement has been updated so that it also contains the Meeting ID for class meetings.
• This Meeting ID can be used for both regularly scheduled office hours and appointments.

Zoom Etiquette:

• Please mute your microphone when not speaking.
• You can unmute your microphone temporarily by pressing the space bar.
• It is up to you whether to allow video access. However, if your connection is good enough, it is much appreciated by other participants (and me!) to be able to see you.
• Please display your real name (or nickname), rather than a pseudonym.
  You can set your name when joining the meeting, or change it in the participants window.
