The Course Room

The Course Room is an open session dedicated to your course. It provides you and your participants with a ‘launch point’ for classes or impromptu meetings.

The default course room is available to anyone and participants can join this session at any time by selecting the link. Instructors don't have to be present for participants to join the Course room session. For this reason, it is recommended that you create a new, separate, supervised session for each event you’ll be hosting.

Info

Note: If you don't see or can't open the Course Room, your administrator has turned it off, or the module co-ordinator has ‘locked’ the Course Room.

Note: If you’re hosting a session with a lot of participants, you may want to disable the Share Audio and Share Video options to prevent audio interference during the session. You should let participants know prior to the start of the session that these options have been disabled.
