Share Recorded Meetings with Students

If you recorded your Zoom Meeting, you may wish to share the recording with all students, or perhaps only those students who could not attend. When recording a Zoom session, IT recommends choosing the record locally option, as opposed to cloud based options due to excessive processing times in the cloud based option, limited storage capacity, and limited availability of recordings.

Support for Zoom is provided by TCU IT Support .

Share Your Meeting Recording File via Box

Follow these steps if you recorded your Zoom meeting, and saved the recording to your computer. These steps will work whether you Scheduled a Meeting with Zoom in TCU Online or scheduled/started your meeting from the Zoom app.

Uploading your video recording to a Box account will keep the recording as an archive in your Box account. Access dates can be set if desired, and sharing settings can be modified to restrict access. Hosting your file in Box is most useful if you have videos without student presence or interaction, such as a recorded lecture that can be reused in future semesters. Be mindful of student presence and/or interaction in a video if the video is used beyond the semester it was offered to respect student privacy.

  1. The TCU IT Zoom page has information about meeting controls (including designating a person to caption the meeting, breakout rooms, polling, and recording the meeting).
  2. TCU IT has provided detailed steps for Uploading Your Zoom Recording to Box and Sharing the link.
  3. Once you have the link from Box, add this to your TCU Online course shell using the Quicklink option in the HTML editor or by creating a content topic link within a module.
