- Hi, everybody.
My name is Lynn Serwin.
I'm an English faculty member, and I've
been asked to facilitate this webinar on ConferZoom.
And I wanted to welcome you all and talk a little bit
about what you know about ConferZoom or using Zoom,
and what you need to know or want
to know in order to do the best work with your students.
So I was in another session earlier
today, not put on by Cerritos College,
but put on by another group, and much
of what they were talking about was
about getting on to Zoom, which was interesting
because the meeting was already in Zoom.
So I think, at that point, people
knew how to get into Zoom.
So let me ask you this.
So in the chat, what I'd like you to do
is scroll your mouse down to the bottom of your screen.
There should be a menu bar that comes up.
Can you see it?
I don't have many faces, so it's hard to tell.
In the menu bar, click on the button that says Chat,
and that will open a sidebar that is a chat.
You know what?
I'm going to share the screen and show you
what that looks like.
All right.
Let me put this--
oh, it's only going to share my actual screen.
Oh, no.
I don't want that.
Never mind.
I'm going to stop that share and do that a little later.
Do you see the bar at the bottom that says Chat?
OK.
Good.
Most of you are saying yes.
At the top of that bar, there is a place where you can--
- Mom.
- Do not talk to me.
I'm in a meeting.
OK?
OK.
There is a place where you can open up.
If you click on where it says Participants, now
that you've got the chat open, click on
where it says Manage or Participants.
And when you do that, you should see a menu,
come up that allows you to click a Yes, a No,
Go Slower, Go Faster.
Do you all see that?
You can raise your hand.
Does anybody see that?
- Yes.
- OK.
Great.
Go ahead and type that into the chat.
So what you basically do is hover
your mouse over the bottom.
You can see where it says Chat.
That puts the chat bar on the side.
And then you press on where it says Manage Participants.
You have to actually click on that,
and then you'll be able to see where you can do a Yes or a No
or Go Slower, Go Faster.
And then if you click on the three dots that say More,
you can raise your hand.
That's the little waving hand.
If I see the waving hand, I will unmute you,
and then you can ask your question.
So if that is OK with everybody, you
can either give me a thumbs up or a yes from that menu
in the chat, or just type yes.
We'll wait a second for that.
Excellent.
OK.
John, were you able to see those--
- I can't see what you're talking about here.
I mean, I see the chat feed on the right-hand side,
but on the lower right, I see File and the three dots,
and the three dots just say, Save Chat.
- Yeah, you can save that chat, and it'll
save on your desktop, which is kind of cool if you're
interested in what's in the chat.
But if you hover along the bottom of the screen
where all of the participants are,
you see a little button that has a couple of faces,
and it says Participants.
- A couple of faces.
Oh.
- When you click on that, it brings up a menu
where you can raise your hand.
- Oh, along the bottom of the video, not on the chat side.
- That is correct.
At the bottom of the screen, at the bottom
of the screen of Zoom, you just hover and the menu
will come up.
- Now I got it.
OK.
- OK.
So you can turn your video on.
You can turn it off.
Like I said, click on Manage Participants.
And then you get to see everything that's
over there in the sidebar.
Everybody with me so far?
OK.
Great.
So let me ask you this.
How many of you have used Zoom prior to this week?
Anybody?
If you have, you can go ahead and type it in the chat.
I'm presuming that most of you have not used it
with your students, correct?
No, never used it.
Correct.
OK.
Fantastic.
So then what we'll need to do is,
I'm going to show you how to use Zoom in Canvas
and then how to use the web-based version of Zoom.
And then I'll tell you a little bit
about how it is that I use Zoom in my classes.
The capabilities of this tool are immense.
There's no way we can handle it in an hour.
So I want to just show you the basics right now,
and, hopefully, take about 25 minutes or so for these basics.
And then I want to leave it open at the end for questions
so that everyone can ask questions
that are specific to whatever it is that you want to do.
So throw me some Yes or some OK over there in the chat.
All right.
So I'm going to share the screen and show you how to get
started.
Oh, I see Linda.
Linda Wallman says she's not used it as a host.
You've all joined one as a participant.
That's the easy part, right?
So let me share the screen, and we'll go from there.
So do you see your [AUDIO OUT] here in--
la-la-la-la.
Do you see the dashboard of Kim K?
So two things.
I need to switch over to Firefox.
All right.
Two things.
One, I usually use Canvas and Chrome,
but the plug-in to use ConferZoom in Canvas,
you need to be in Firefox.
So the browser will make a difference.
If you're working on a Mac, and you're
using Safari or if you're using Microsoft and using Edge,
those may not seamlessly blend together.
That's why I want to make sure that I show you the web version
as well.
So this is my English 100 class.
And when you click on it, you can
see, in my sidebar over here, that ConferZoom
is one of the options.
This is an option that is open for my students so that they
can join meetings, schedule meetings,
and [AUDIO OUT] I'm doing this, I cannot see the questions
in the chat.
So let me go through this quickly so
that I can be done sharing the screen,
and then we can go over the questions in the chat.
Please do type your questions in the chat because we
will get to all of them.
When you click on ConferZoom, it brings up an interface here
on your Canvas page.
You can schedule a Zoom event that occurs regularly,
or you can just launch it in the moment, and what it will do
is, it will launch, and then it'll send you over
into the Zoom interface, which looks--
oh, there it is.
OK.
And then it'll take your over to Zoom,
so it'll look exactly like what it is that you're
looking at right now.
All right.
So I'm going to do the quick launch so that you
can see what that looks like.
But before we do that, let's just take a look
at this schedule thing.
What you would do is, you would fill out this.
When do you want to meet with your students?
If you were choosing to do a Zoom meeting where you were
inviting everybody-- let's say you just want to open up
your office hours for anybody to come and chat with you--
everybody could join in exactly the same way
that you all just joined this meeting.
If you schedule it, all they would need to do
is go here and see what it looks like.
So you can describe what you want your meeting
to be, give it a name, do it once, do it weekly, do it
daily, whenever you want to do it.
Give it a date.
When is it going to start?
How long is it going to be?
And then you click Save.
When you click Save, it'll show up in the scheduled page here,
and then your students can just click on it when
the time comes for your event.
But we're going to go to quick launch,
and let's do with a duration of--
you know what?
I don't know that that's going to work either
because we're already in Zoom.
Let's see what happens.
Yeah.
So it's opening up Zoom.
Oh, man.
And it wants my plug-in because I haven't really
used it here in Canvas.
Shoot.
I should have done that before.
OK.
Let's see if it opens.
Well, it should open and look exactly the same
as what it is that we're looking at right now.
Click the icon above in Zoom.
Use Firefox, you guys.
One of the things that we want to make sure
that you understand is that this is new for all of us too.
I do this in a slightly different way,
but they've asked us to have us do it through Canvas.
So this is what it looks like through Canvas.
Once you then get to Zoom, it looks somewhat different.
But the benefit of having it here
is so that your students can just
click on ConferZoom, click on the event,
and then they launch Zoom in the same way
that you've done it here.
And then they're able to join your meeting,
and it would look exactly like this.
So since I can't make that happen while I'm already here
in this meeting, we're going to switch over
to what it looks like in the web version.
So hang on.
OK.
So if you take a look at the URL up here at the top,
it says CCC ConferZoom.
That is our website, and it goes to your account.
You have to sign in using your Cerritos College email address,
and then you can create your own password.
This is the way I usually use Zoom.
And then my meetings are all right here.
You can see, it has that event that I just
launched from Canvas.
So they interchange.
You can do it from either location.
My personal preference is to use this
because I find it a little bit easier because I don't normally
use Firefox, but you can do it however you want.
So I'm going to stop sharing at this point
and take a look at the chat so that I
can answer those questions.
And like I said, if you do have a question that's
relevant to what I'm talking about
when I am sharing the screen, please do that hand
raise thing.
Nobody's using their camera except for John Macia,
so I can't see anybody.
So if you want to raise your hand,
you have to go over to the chat, hover over
where it says Participants, click on that,
and then you have the option to raise your hand.
OK.
All right.
Where can we see the recorded webinars?
Those are going to be listed on the CTX site.
I don't know where Chad is going to put those,
but I'm sure that that will be right there on the CTX home
page, is going to be my guess.
Do they get an email automatically
or do you need to send an email to them?
That's a really good question.
Your students will not know that this meeting is
happening unless you tell them.
You can send them an email, or you
can do an announcement in Canvas that walks them through how
to join the meeting.
To join the meeting in Canvas, all they really need to do
is click on where it says ConferZoom and then
click on the meeting.
And then it should open up like this,
once they've downloaded the Zoom plug-in
to their computers, which usually
happens very seamlessly.
OK.
Does it automatically send them an invite?
Do we need to make an announcement?
OK.
Once you set up a Zoom meeting on ConferZoom,
the class will need to click on the highlighted event.
That's correct.
That's exactly right.
And 15 minutes before the event begins,
it'll have a little red button that says Join.
It'll give them the option to do that.
What is the best way to set up Zoom for office
hours for multiple classes?
I have a great answer for that that I
will show you in a minute.
Are you going to include the steps
you couldn't do while Zoom in the recorded session?
Yes.
We have several resources on Canvas
that I'm also going to show you.
OK.
So let me go back to sharing the screen,
and I will show you how to set up Zoom for multiple classes.
OK.
So in your Zoom interface, which looks like this,
this is, like I said, all you need to go
is CCC Confer.zoom.us.
Type in your Cerritos College email address.
Create a password.
It can be any password.
It doesn't have to be your Cerritos password.
And it'll take you to your dashboard that looks like this.
When you set up your profile, you
can create a personal meeting ID.
Your personal meeting ID can be any number
that you come up with that you want.
This is my childhood phone number.
And you can use this number for instant meetings.
Up here at the top, you can host a meeting in an instant,
just by clicking Host a Meeting with video on or off.
Any of them can join this meeting.
This is the benefit of doing it through the web interface
as opposed to the Canvas interface
because this way, any of your students can join,
not just the ones from the class where you set up the meeting.
Does that make sense?
OK.
You also have the option here to personalize this link
by clicking Customize, and it gives you
an option to give it a name.
So I would just send this link to my students.
I'm calling it Sir 1 Zoom Room.
And then they just can, on my canvas site, on the home page--
oh, I don't have it there yet--
there will be a link to the Sir 1 Zoom Room right
here on the home page.
So at any time they want to meet during the office hours, which
will be listed here on the home page of Canvas,
they can click on that, and it'll
take them directly to the Zoom meeting, where I will be.
OK.
Let me stop share for that.
Zoom is meant as broadcasting.
We can have as many as 300 people in our meetings
because we have pro accounts.
Conference is one-on-one, which is that you set up
using BigBlueButton in Canvas.
Now, I've never used it.
I prefer Zoom for these individual meetings.
And I'll show you how to do both things.
We'll go back to the screen.
If you are in Zoom, you go to Meetings.
You can schedule a new meeting, and you
can call it whatever you want.
Conference with Joe.
Say that's your student's name.
You give it a time when you're going to do it.
You allow [AUDIO OUT] automatically
for individual meetings, so that there's no confusion
with the regular Zoom Room.
Allow the host and participant to use video and audio.
And then click Save.
[AUDIO OUT] when your scheduled meetings, and then you can just
click Start This Meeting right here, and Joe has this URL.
Joe goes to the URL.
You send it to him.
And then you start the meeting, and you're both on.
So that's the way to use Zoom for one-on-one.
In Canvas, [AUDIO OUT] which I don't think I even
have as an option for my students.
You click on Conferences, and then
you basically follow the same basic gist,
and it'll take you out of Canvas and into this BigBlueButton
page and allow you to set it up.
I don't want to spend too much time going into that right now,
but I will show you where there's
a good resource for that.
OK.
Let me see what else is in the chat.
For the office hours, I think anyone
you send the link to can view it, no matter which class you
start in.
It will just show up in the one class on the ConferZoom link.
Linda, can you unmute yourself and tell me
what you know about that because I don't know that that's
necessarily the case?
I'm going to unmute Linda.
Where's Linda?
Linda Wallman?
Can you unmute and tell us about that question because I'm not--
OK.
Can you tell me a little bit about that?
You said for office hours, you think
anyone you send the link to can view it, no matter
which class you start it in?
I can't hear you, Linda.
OK.
Well, I think that is true.
I think if you send the link to all your students,
they will all be able to come to the meeting,
no matter which class you build it in.
But if you're building in the web version of Zoom,
it's going to be easier than doing it inside Canvas
because if you do it inside Canvas,
it's associated with that class.
Linda is correct.
I scheduled one class today and emailed the other midway
through, and the class joined.
OK.
Question about that.
Did you schedule directly through ConferZoom
in your class?
- Yes.
I had scheduled using through Canvas,
which I absolutely hated.
It was slow.
It was painful.
My plan is just to use the website, as you suggested.
So I had scheduled through one of my classes,
and then I quickly sent an announcement to my other class
while in the meeting and [AUDIO OUT] of them joined in.
So as long as they have the invite or the ID,
they can join.
I just couldn't figure it out in Canvas, but from what you said,
we shouldn't be using Canvas to schedule.
It's not easier, that's for sure.
- It really is not.
And when Dave Gunn told me, yeah, can you
do your webinar using the--
and so I've been, all day, messing around with it,
and all day I've been having trouble.
So I know how to use it for real by using from the web version,
but I wasn't sure where all of you were on this.
So let's see.
Yoran had a question.
When do you send the class meeting link to your students?
One day before the class or hours before the class?
OK.
Here's a question, Yoran Are you planning
on teaching your class at the same time
that it normally was taught, in a Zoom meeting,
for the entire duration of the class?
We are really recommending that you don't necessarily
do that right now.
We have to think about this particular type
of online education as completely
different from face-to-face education,
and completely different than the way
you normally do online education.
If you're asking your students to attend class during the hour
that it normally meets, in theory,
they would be able to do that because they've
been doing that.
However, I mean, we don't know what's going on in their lives
right now.
They may have children at home that they're having
to homeschool all of a sudden.
They may have lost their job and had to go quickly
get a job at Costco.
Or who knows what?
They may not be able to attend your class
during the regular time.
Is that what you were thinking of doing, Yoran?
You can unmute yourself then and let
us know what you were thinking.
Don't know.
OK.
Well, if you do get a microphone, if you just
called in and that doesn't [AUDIO OUT],, it's OK.
We can figure that out.
But we recommend that you offer it optional, but not
make it mandatory.
And if you need your student online during the whole time,
they may not be able to be online during the whole time.
Just something to think about.
OK.
- I was going to do online, but have it recorded so that they
could look at a later point.
And this leads me to my next question.
I've gotten the transcript back from something that I did.
I don't know how to edit the transcript
to be easier to read.
There's some things that it misses, like a period,
- You can do that in Zoom.
I'll show you.
I can show you how to do that.
Let me just get through these other questions here,
and then I will show you guys how to do that.
When do you send the class--
OK.
I launched a meeting and tried to send the students the HTTP
address, and it asked the student for a code.
If they are working on a mobile device,
it's going to ask them for a meeting ID.
It's called meeting ID, and the meeting ID is this.
So in your meeting, let's say this is correct,
you send them this URL, or if they
are joining from the mobile device,
all they need is this part.
This number right here.
It's a nine-digit number, I think.
One, two, three, four, five--
number, and they put that unique number
into their mobile device, and then they can join the meeting.
So I think that's what that question was.
Linda, you're on.
You got it.
Great.
That helps.
How do you suggest we do class?
OK.
So let's just go there.
I'm going to take you out of my class
and go to the remote-teaching resources.
Every faculty member at Cerritos College
should have access to this Canvas course or shell.
It's been developed by a variety of people
who have resources in a variety of different places.
If you do not have this course on your dashboard,
all you need to do is let me know in the chat,
and I will add you right after this meeting.
This resource is so rich and so robust.
You're going to see it in a student
view, which will look a little bit different than this.
But basically, this will tell you
a little bit about what it is that we
mean by teaching remotely versus teaching online or teaching
face-to-face.
It's a different kind of thing.
And the other thing that's important to remember at this
period in time is that we are in a crisis situation,
a not-business-as-usual situation.
We're in a global situation, which
means that the way we traditionally do things
may not be the best way to do things now.
Experts and people who are well versed in online education
and through this process have been gathering
information [AUDIO OUT].
All of it is on the site.
So if you go through this At A Glance box,
and you basically go through these little bullet points,
that'll show you [AUDIO OUT] up your class
so that it is the most equitable and compassionate
and kind [AUDIO OUT] be in a difficult [AUDIO OUT]..
The two things that I recommend the most
are this one, Essential Elements.
This is a webinar that we did yesterday
that has some really good material.
This Essential Elements document tells you
a little bit about what you should, at a minimum,
do with your students and then how you can make [AUDIO OUT]..
And in addition to that, in this unit,
there are some thoughts on equitable grading
practices and things like that.
The modules you'll see in this unit
are all about everything you're going to need.
If you start with these first two,
that will give you all the [AUDIO OUT]
what is going to be the best way for you to deliver your course.
And then the rest of it is a bunch of tools
that we have in order to make remote teaching
valuable for you.
Adapting curriculum is [AUDIO OUT] time.
This is a really good module as well.
This page talks about extending deadlines, adjusting
your assessments, alternative assignments,
allowing extensions.
This is the situation.
It's a little different than just basic teaching.
So let me see what else is over here on the chat.
Mobile devices, you need to add that last group of numbers.
Yeah, it's called the meeting ID.
When you record [AUDIO OUT] had to put
in the closed captioning.
I assume it's required [AUDIO OUT] the good question.
The college right now [AUDIO OUT] for us.
Live captioning is done with a subscription,
and I believe that they're working on that right now,
but as of right now, we don't have that option for it
to be done live.
So right now, this meeting is being recorded,
and a recorded meeting does get captioned,
and I'll show you where to find that.
Let me go back to share the screen.
OK.
I'm going to go back to Canvas--
I'm sorry-- to Zoom.
So you can see Recordings is right here.
Every time I record a meeting, it keeps a list of them
over here.
I've been sending navigation lists for Canvas,
just a little navigation video, to my students
every week so that they know exactly what it
is they're supposed to do.
So we can look at this one.
So this is the page that you see after your recording is
completed.
When you click on the video, this is the mp4 right here,
or you can [AUDIO OUT] mp4 also an audio-only file
in the transcript file.
I believe this is what you were talking
about before where your transcript file had some errors
and stuff in it.
What you'll want to do is click on the video itself,
and the video will open in a screen.
- So [AUDIO OUT].
- So you can see that was back in the old days
when we still had offices at Cerritos College.
I miss my office already.
But you can see that all of the captions are over here.
Everything that I've said is over here,
and this little pencil mark right here, you
can use to edit it.
So if, for some reason, I didn't say this week,
and I said next week, I could just change it.
And if you take this link, the shared link,
you can share that.
I'll go back so you can see it.
Copy Shareable Link.
When you copy this link, and you paste it into a new window--
so this is a new window right here--
it will take you to the same video and that same page.
And it will give that audio transcript over here
to the side.
So that's the way I manage the captioning for the recording.
Once it's there, I believe that they
can press the CC on the video, and it'll show up.
OK.
So let me go back to the questions.
Just a side note, for office hours--
I learned from another webinar--
it helps if you set in a way to have students
wait in the waiting room.
Yeah.
So you could have them wait in a waiting room.
You just need to set that up in your meeting.
I can show you how to [AUDIO OUT]..
them attend a 20-minute session during my regular class time.
I have three of the same class, 60 students each.
That's when you'll do the problems.
That make sense, right?
OK.
A waiting room-- can you do it one by one?
How do you set up the waiting room?
OK.
So let's do that.
So when you set up your meeting--
we're going to schedule a new meeting right here.
We're going to call it office hours.
You can give it a description.
But it doesn't really matter.
Recurring meeting, required meeting
ID, video, video, video meeting options.
Enable Waiting Room.
When you click Enable Waiting Room, what
will happen is, your students, whoever you're talking to
in that moment, it'll be a [AUDIO OUT] there's
someone in the waiting room.
And then you can just switch over from the student
that you have to the waiting room itself.
That's it.
That make sense?
Zoom has another capability which is the breakout room.
That is a favorite.
You can pre-assign people to a breakout room
or you can just do it randomly during your Zoom meeting.
So let me show you what that looks like.
Stop, share.
OK.
If you hover down at the bottom, and then I
don't know if you can see the option as a host--
I mean, I'm sorry, as a participant,
where it says breakout rooms.
When you hover along the bottom, can you
see a notice for breakout room?
No.
OK.
Why can't I--
Let me try share screen again.
Oh, I know why.
Never mind.
Hang on.
Let me do something else.
I'm going to share screen.
And I'll just make this big.
Nope.
Not working.
You're all still seeing my screen, right,
not our zoom meeting, correct?
I don't know how to make that the screen we're looking at.
How do we make that the screen we're looking at?
Oh, I know.
Maybe it's here.
Nope.
[AUDIO OUT] before me because normally,
when I have everybody in the meeting, I'm sharing my desktop
or you can use the whiteboard or there's things like that.
I have to figure this [AUDIO OUT]..
I can't show you the breakout rooms.
Let me go back and show you where
you can find more information because, sadly, this
is not going to help you.
OK.
All right.
This is the Center for Teaching Excellence page.
And on this page, if you click on Remote Teaching Resources,
there are a ton of little things over here that can help you.
How many of you used this so far?
Anybody?
Taken a look at the CTX page?
It's linked on the home page on the COVID-19,
but if you just go straight to the Center for Teaching
Excellence page, and you click on remote-teaching resource
[AUDIO OUT] some how-tos for how to use ConferZoom in Canvas.
This is useful, from Dave, but again, I
watched this one today.
Dave Gunn did it, and it doesn't show you the navigation
bar at the bottom.
Adding captions, this is a PDF for how to do that.
The live closed captions, using the standalone ConferZoom Pro.
This is what we have been talking
about during this webinar.
And then adding narration to a PowerPoint.
These are the most common things that you'll do with Zoom.
But there is also, if you go back
to the remote-teaching [AUDIO OUT]
sources Canvas page, there's a section on Zoom,
using Zoom's collaboration tools, which
has annotation figure, breakout rooms, remote control.
So these will give you some more information on those things.
So that's where you can find that.
OK.
So what else?
Can you record just yourself in advance of a Zoom?
Yeah, and then post that video.
Yeah.
That's what I do every week.
I share the screen, and I show my students
how to navigate the Canvas page for the week.
And then I either share the link with them,
like I showed you before, or I upload
it to YouTube and caption it there, and send them
or embed the YouTube into the Canvas page.
It's the only participants.
Save it.
Let them access it.
Yeah.
That's an easy thing to do.
What other questions do you have?
You can go ahead and unmute yourself and ask away.
- So with the YouTube, if you were to do the Zoom and then,
I guess, make yourself a YouTube account,
but then caption it there, and then embed that video,
then they can't download the information whereas they
could with your Zoom video.
- You mean download like the transcripts?
What do you mean, download the information?
- So I had to do a quick and dirty to try to show some
of our part-timers how to import a module from the Canvas
Commons.
And so I recorded the video and then shared that link.
So when they go to that link, you
have the option to download.
But if you do it through YouTube, you can't do that.
You just can watch it.
- That's correct.
Yeah.
They can watch it.
Yeah.
They can put comments there.
You can do a bunch of stuff with YouTube.
I think you can embed videos or link to videos
and a lot of things, but I don't know that they
can download the video.
But I don't know because I don't use YouTube in that way.
But I can look into that and see,
and then I'll add it to the Canvas site,
if I find that out.
- Do you also have-- or I haven't checked yet--
some sort of standardized thing of--
because these things are now recorded,
I want it to just be for my students.
I don't want it to be for everybody else,
that there is some sort of etiquette in terms of what
they can do with things that they take off from my Canvas
site.
And one of those would be the videos.
- So you want to make sure that your students can't
take the videos off your site and then
put them somewhere else.
[AUDIO OUT] them up somewhere else.
Correct.
- I think if you embed them, I don't think they can do that.
I mean, we could try it.
Let's see.
If we have some time at the end, let's try
that because I can log in as a student, and I can do that.
So we'll see.
OK.
Let's do that at the end.
[AUDIO OUT] you use [AUDIO OUT] this happening
in all the breakout rooms at once,
you have to go in and join each one
and see what they're [AUDIO OUT]..
But what it does is, it gives them some [AUDIO OUT]
to be able to do-- it's just the same as if you were
having group work in your class, and you were wandering around.
You don't see what everybody is doing the whole time,
but when you come into that group,
you can focus them a little bit.
So that's a really cool feature.
I love that one a lot.
Is a Zoom meeting [AUDIO OUT]?
It is.
That's what we were just looking at, which
I can show you one more time.
On the Zoom page, when you go to Recordings,
you have to have recorded your meeting first.
Then you go to the video that you want to download,
and you click Download.
And what it will do is, it'll download three files.
You can see these here at the bottom.
There's an mp4, a VTT, and an mp4a.
You want the mp4.
That's the one that's the video.
And then you just save it to your desktop
or you can upload it to YouTube.
So that's how you do that.
Yes.
You were in a Zoom meeting where the host initiated
a poll to enter answers, which I think really
promotes interaction.
Yes, do you know how to do the poll?
I think the poll--
I haven't done that.
Shoot.
I will figure that out, and I will add it
to the site on the Canvas page because I'm
not exactly sure where that is.
But I'll find it.
I made the polls ahead of time.
It's in Prepare button.
When you host, it's also available at the bottom.
Oh, here it is .
Add a question.
Let's see.
Oh, it's asking me to sign in.
OK.
Never mind.
I'm not going to do that right now.
But yeah, it looks like you can do that.
When you're hosting, there's an option
at the bottom to add the poll.
Is a Zoom meeting downloadable by students
once you post the recorded mp3 meeting into Canvas?
That's what we were going to test.
I don't know if it is or not.
We can try that right now.
So I'm going to go over here, and I'm
going to log in as a student.
One thing that is really useful is
to have Dave Gunn create, for you, a student
account because then you can see the authentic page
that your students see.
OK.
So here's my class.
And we go to modules.
Each week they get an activity.
And the navigation video is there every week.
So it looks like you can copy the embed code.
You can copy the video URL.
You can loop the video.
It doesn't allow you to download it.
But this is a YouTube video.
I upload to YouTube, and then I embed here.
So if you don't do that, and you just put the Canvas video here,
you embed the Canvas video, I don't know if that works.
I don't know.
[AUDIO OUT] to check that out.
But it looks like the answer to your question from before,
it doesn't appear that if it is embedded in your Canvas page,
that they can download it.
[AUDIO OUT] I think so.
Or you can always be moderating, per the chat.
So they can always be writing their questions in the chat.
How often do [AUDIO OUT] classroom [AUDIO OUT] time
or an alert?
Yes.
I would send it every week, but I would also
add it in your Canvas page.
Don't rely on email with students
too much because they don't check email.
But if you are using announcements in Canvas,
then they can always find it there.
I do ask them to set up their notifications
so that they do get an email.
OK.
My sound is cutting out because my Wi-Fi, guess what?
It's bad.
We have a Spectrum guy coming on Friday.
Good times over here in the Serwin house.
[AUDIO OUT] hear that?
Our Wi-Fi is not very strong, but [AUDIO OUT] was with that.
So depending on how often you're going
to use Zoom for class, Yuron, would
be how often you would need to send that link.
I would make sure that you send it
at the beginning of the week, and then send it
to them an hour before class or 15 minutes before class,
or whatever.
They got a lot on their minds right now.
Your class is just one of the zillions of things they're
going to have on their minds.
So keep in mind how to make it simpler for them.
The easier you can make this process
for your students, the better.
Zoom meetings are amazing, but I'm
sure you're finding now that you're in them all day long.
It could become a little bit of cognitive overload
for your students.
If they're in a Zoom meeting for every class they have,
they're going to check out.
They're going to click over here saying, I need a break.
And if they're not using their camera, and they're muted,
they could be walked away.
You don't even know.
So I would try and engage with your students in a little bit
different way than using Zoom as your total way
to communicate with your students.
I would definitely offer it, especially for office hours.
It's crucial for that.
And then I do a Q&A session once a week as well,
in the evening, where they can come in and ask a question
on whatever we're working on.
OK.
[AUDIO OUT] you can just unmute yourself and ask anything
you want.
We have about nine minutes to go.
Anybody teaching a lab class?
No?
Anyone?
I'm wondering how those labs are going to go.
Yes.
OK.
So Linda, yes, two.
I think tomorrow there are going to be two sessions, one
on lab classes and one on performance-based classes.
So I would check those out too.
Let me show you that schedule one more time.
I think it's here.
OK.
So these are all the sessions that Cerritos College is
offering, and some of them are offered by other places.
3CSN and CBC OEIBs, these are regional organizations.
So tomorrow, you've got accessibility practices,
how to do feedback.
This Zoom 101 through 3CSN is pretty basic.
So that's a good one to go to if you need basic.
But I don't-- I mean, based on the questions you're asking,
I'm not sure that you guys need very basic.
I think you basically got it.
And then on Friday, how to use Screencast-O-Matic in order
to make videos that you post.
That's a good one.
These 101, they're very simple library resources.
All of these could be useful.
OK.
Other questions.
I went [AUDIO OUT] most talked about [AUDIO OUT]..
Which session was that?
Linda?
Taking exams.
Oh.
The labs one, oh, wow.
That's too bad.
That is too bad.
All right.
Proctorio is a testing proctoring program,
and it's good for math and any kind of exam
that you want to give.
You can also use Zoom to monitor your students
while they're taking an exam, if you want to.
I know that, I think, some K12 people are doing that.
So that's an option.
All these webinars are recorded.
To find them and access them after this week is over,
I'm sure they're going to be on the CTX page.
It'll be a list of all of the webinars
that were offered with either an uploaded YouTube
version or the Zoom version.
As a newbie, I'd prefer to use the web instead of Canvas.
Why is the college asking us to use [AUDIO OUT] Canvas?
That's a really good question, and I'm just
going to tell you on the side, just use the web.
Their concern is that the web is going to get overloaded.
And that may happen.
It may get slow, but the web version is so much easier.
It's just easier.
I think one of the other things that they're thinking
is that their students will be accessing
all the content through Canvas.
So they just have one log in, but I
think what they're missing is that a lot of our students
are going to be doing all of their work
on their phones or another mobile device.
And they're going to have the Canvas app,
and they're going to have the Zoom app,
and they're going to have all of these things,
It's going to be easier for them to use the Zoom app
than to try and use a web-based, like Safari, on their phone.
That's the only way they're going to be
able to do it through Canvas.
The app is not set up for that.
So I say, use the web version.
Linda says she agrees.
Oh, foregoing Proctorio on Zoom for exams and quizzes.
Assuming open note.
Smart, Amy.
Really smart.
That's the way to go.
Asking not to collaborate, setting time limits.
I don't want to assume students have a web
cam, a room to themselves.
This is exactly what it means to teach in this day and age
with this situation, Amy.
That is exactly what we should be doing.
Whatever we can do in order to allow our students
and trust them to do what you want them to do,
let's trust them.
Canvas had a conference app, not ConferZoom,
and it's still available.
Yeah.
That is there.
That's the BigBlueButton we talked about before.
So if that is it, anybody have anything else
before I end the meeting?
I want to thank you, everybody, for being here,
and I apologize for not knowing everything.
It's been very humbling to take what I do as an English teacher
and then try and expand it for the whole campus.
It's not the same, but we're trying.
And I do believe that the Canvas remote resources
page is your best bet for any kind of details,
any kind of detail work.
Everything is linked there in about two or three
different places.
So I highly recommend using that.
Thank you.
It was helpful.
Great.
OK.
Well, I'm going to save the chat.
Embedded tutor question above.
Oh, I didn't see that.
Can an embedded tutor set up a Zoom account
to be able to hold tutoring hours?
Can he/she use the Cerritos.edu email account to create it?
Oh, boy.
That's going to be a question for Dave Gunn.
I would recommend that you send that question to dgunn.
It's two Ns.
G-U-N-N, at Cerritos.edu and find out.
I do know that you can add an embedded tutor to your Canvas
course.
I think they have options.
Tutors TA.
There's a lot of things that they can do.
But Zoom, I don't know.
So that's a really good question.
Embedded tutor.
Thanks for all the help.
Tutors do not have details yet.
OK.
So it looks like they are going to let that happen.
In the free version, they can do 40 minutes.
So I would say they can all. sign up for free versions.
That's an option too.
I've added your tutors.
They will have eight hours to tutor and need a way to do so.
Yeah.
So I'm sure that the college is working that out.
That's a good question for Dave.
OK.
All right.
Thank you, everybody.
I appreciate it very much, and good luck out there.
Keep us posted, if you need any help.
OK?
You can email me.
My email is on--
it's one of the Canvas mentors.
You can find me there.
OK, bye.
