Zoom is a synchronous communication tool that allows faculty and students to connect in real time using video and audio. Users can also share their screen, use a digital whiteboard, and record their sessions. Zoom can be accessed via Blackboard to create links for your your Blackboard class or directly through Zoom to connect with other groups or individuals.
