Zoom

Zoom is a cloud-based video conferencing tool that combines the ability to virtually meet across platforms and devices with the opportunity for meeting hosts (instructors) to collaborate with participants (students) through application and desktop sharing, high definition audio and video transmission, and web-based chat.

Any faculty member who plans to record a lecture or provide a virtual classroom environment can use Zoom.
