December 2023 Zoom Update

The end of the term and the holidays are fast approaching! With the exams and important meetings or events this time of year brings, we ask that you to take a moment to ensure that your Zoom client is up to date to be sure that you are ready for these important moments. You will want to be sure to take the time to check this even if you primarily utilize Zoom from the web- as Zoom accesses the on-device client in order to operate your camera, mic, and meeting controls, making it important to have the most recent version to ensure access to the most recent features and security settings. More information on how to update your client can be found via Zoom’s support site:  Update your Zoom Client. Note, if you do not have the Zoom client pinned to your computer desktop or dock, you may need to follow these directions to locate the program on your computer. Don’t want to have to remember to make the updates yourself? You can now enable auto-update.

Zoom Whiteboard

Zoom has continued to iterate on it’s Whiteboard feature, creating a robust tool that can be used both inside and out of meetings. If you aren’t familiar with it’s features, check out Zoom’s Getting Started with Zoom Whiteboard– you may find this the perfect tool to add to your end of term classes, meetings, and events for content review and collaboration.
