\"ScreenshotAs of August 10, 2020, Ball State has officially launched Zoom<\/a> as an available online conferencing tool for all faculty, staff, and students.<\/p>\n

A Ball State Zoom account allows you to collaborate remotely with up to 300 Ball State and\/or non-Ball State participants via audio, video, and screen sharing, reducing the need for in-person meetings. You can participate in a Zoom session on a PC, a Mac, or on iOS and Android mobile devices.<\/p>\n

How do I create\/access my Ball State Zoom account?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To create and\/or access your account, log in with your Ball State username and password at https:\/\/bsu.zoom.us\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What if I have a personal Zoom account?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

If you currently have a personal Zoom account (Basic or Pro) that uses your Ball State e-mail address, you will be asked by Zoom to migrate your personal account to Ball State\u2019s account when signing in for the first time. If you have a Zoom Pro account and chose to migrate it to Ball State\u2019s account, you will no longer be billed for that account. See this Technology Helpdesk Knowledge base article for more information<\/a>.<\/p>\n

How do I get more information or training?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To find out more about Zoom\u2019s online communication and collaboration features and benefits, including how to set up meetings and invite others, visit this Technology HelpDesk Knowledge Base article.<\/a><\/p>\n

In addition, Online and Strategic Learning is offering virtual Zoom training opportunities for Ball State faculty<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Is WebEx still available?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Yes, you can still use WebEx for online conferencing.<\/p>\n

If you have any questions or issues with your Zoom account or its use, please submit a request for assistance at bsu.edu\/helpdesk<\/a> or call the Technology HelpDesk at 765-285-1517<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
