What is Zoom?
Zoom is one of UCL's web conferencing or online classroom platforms. It is provides a range of different functions in a live, or synchronous, learning environment. These features include:
- Audio and video conferencing;
- Presentation and whiteboard facilities;
- Application sharing;
- Text chat for student discussion and questions;
- Tools for hand-raising and reactions;
- Polling;
- Breakout rooms for small group activities.
Zoom can be used for a variety of teaching and learning activities, including seminars and interactive group study, Q&A discussions, guest lectures, and tutorials.
It can also act as an informal course meeting space and be used with participants from outside of UCL.
The maximum number of participants for a given session (including moderators and presenters) is 300.
UCL has a site-wide licence for Zoom that you can access via your UCL account. To sign up, go to XXX
