Best practices for using Zoom in the Classroom

  • Be aware of the placement of the video camera and the microphone. Location may differ by classroom.

  • Repeat questions asked by students to be heard by remote students and/or captured for the recording.

  • Pause periodically to check the Zoom Chat for questions from remote students.

  • The classroom whiteboard will likely not be captured by lecture capture. Instead, use the Document Camera to write or draw content while lecturing.

  • If possible, have a moderator such as a Learning Assistant help manage the Zoom meeting and remote students.
