To create a link to a ZOOM meeting on the course moodle website:

1. Initialize a Zoom user with a Technion license: If you have not already done so - go to technion.zoom.us and sign in with the Technion user.

2. Go to the course website and enable editing:

"Edit mode" switch button is shown in a red rectangle. When turned on, the button is green

3. In the desired teaching unit, click "+ Add an activity or resource or activity":

"Add an activity or resource" button is in the middle under the section headline.

4. In the floating menu, select the "Zoom Meeting" activity:

"Activities" and "Zoom meeting" (orange icon with a video camera) buttons in the floating menu are shown in red rectangles.

 On the next page, you must define the meeting details:

  • Enter a meaningful title for the meeting (e.g. "Link to Zoom meetings of course lectures".
  • You can add instructions for students in description.
  • Set the schedule: You can set a date, duration of the meeting and whether the meeting repeats on a regular basis (if you prefer one link for all meetings during the semester, this is a convenient option). You can set a registration requirement for the meetings:

  • There are security options for the session, choose the one that best suits the situation:
