As of this morning (March 20), CIS has extended the Pro license for Zoom to everyone with a Vassar email address. This means that students can now create their own meetings and they instructors can designate students as meeting co-hosts or alternate hosts.
Additional Zoom setting changes:
- It’s now a default that meeting participants will need to be logged in (“registered users”) to join a meeting; you should only change this setting if you specifically need to invite a non-Vassar person.
- If you share the link to your meeting recording that’s saved in the cloud, users will need to log in with their Vassar ID to access it. (You can also require an additional password.)
- If you enable recording in your meeting, participants will be prompted to give their consent. If a student attempts to record the meeting to their local disk, the host will be prompted to give permission for that.
