New Zoom Storage Plan
Starting June 30, 2023, the District, in collaboration with the DE Committee Chairs, is implementing a new Zoom Storage Plan. Here is the plan information and resources to support:
Migration & Importing into Mediasite: All previous Zoom recordings are being migrated into Mediasite. Additionally, ALL new Zoom recordings will be automatically imported into Mediasite by default.- Users can review migrated Zoom recordings and new Zoom recordings that will be imported into your Mediasite list. Mediasite can be accessed through the RCCD SSO (single sign-on) in "All Apps."
- If desired, all users can download specific Zoom recordings to their personal or work devices.
- Faculty can manually migrate Zoom recording MP4 files into Canvas Studio. Faculty can watch this quick video tutorial to learn more: Move Your Previous Zoom Recordings Canvas Studio
- If needed, users can manually download the attendance reports (usage reports) prior to June 30, 2023. Watch this quick video tutorial to learn more: Archiving Zoom Attendance Reports (updated video).
- If needed, all users can review Zoom recordings and check their Zoom trash every month moving forward to ensure needed recordings are downloaded or migrated as needed.
- Watch this quick video tutorial to learn more: Deleting & Retrieving Zoom Recordings.
