Online-Meetings in Moodle

Conduct online meetings or office hours and work together online using the “BigBlueButton” activity.

BigBlueButton can be added to the course as an activity.

Further information can be found in the FAQ-Article “Activity BigBlueButton (BBB)”

Alternative Web Conferencing Systems

Alternatives to BBB include “Zoom” or “Adobe Connect”. There are no specific activities within Moodle for these web conferences. A meeting must be created externally, in “Zoom” or “Adobe Connect”. The link can then be integrated into the Moodle course using a “Text and media area” or an “URL”, allowing participants to join the meeting.

To use “Adobe Connect”, you will need the Adobe Connect app, a headset and possibly a webcam.
