Accessing a Zoom Meeting Through Blackboard
Some instructors will place a Zoom tool in their Blackboard courses.
However, some instructors will not.
It is always best to refer to the syllabus or to contact the instructor directly if you have any questions.
To access a Zoom Meeting through Blackboard, if your instructor is using the Blackboard Zoom tool:
1. Go to the course that has the scheduled meeting
2. Look on the left side panel for a Zoom link and select it (the link can be named anything, generally we see: Zoom, Zoom Classroom, Zoom Meeting, and so on... The instructors choose the link names)
3. This will take you to the Zoom tool and you will see the Zoom sessions scheduled for your course.
To join a meeting, you can simply click the "Join" button.
You would then be connected to the Zoom session with your instructor.
