In our ongoing efforts to provide a flexible and accessible learning environment, we are excited to highlight the benefits of using Zoom as an integral tool in our academic programs. Zoom’s robust platform supports a wide range of educational activities, making it an essential resource for both instructors and students.

Breakout Rooms: Encourage collaboration through small group discussions and activities.
Recording Capabilities: Record lectures and sessions for students to review at their convenience, ensuring that everyone can learn at their own pace.
Interactive Tools: Utilize features like polls, quizzes, and whiteboards to engage students and make learning more interactive.

For Students:
Zoom empowers you to:
