Accessing a Zoom Event

There are two main ways to access a Zoom event for CSE 190e described in the sections below. Choose whichever you find most convenient! To access recordings of the lecture sessions, you will need to use the Zoom in Canvas option.

When joining the call, if this is for a lecture or quiz section, you will automatically be added to the call assuming that the member of the course staff leading that session has started the call. If this is for office hours, you will be added to a waiting room and a course staff member will help you when they are available!

For further instructions, see UW-IT's documentation:

Zoom in Canvas

Click on the Zoom link on the left side of our Canvas course (or this link here). This brings up a list of all Zoom meetings for this course (you will see meetings for morning and afternoon sessions as well as office hours).

List view of Zoom in Canvas

Say you want to join lecture on Friday, August 25th. You will click on the "Join" button for lecture that day (shown in the image below), and it will launch a new tab that will launch Zoom. Note that your calendar will likely have more than one event per day (like afternon and office hours), so make sure you click the right event! This will then launch Zoom so you can join the meeting (or launch the Zoom app if you have downloaded that).

Canvas Calendar

Access your Canvas calendar by clicking on the Calendar option in the left-most side bar (or accessing this link here). The image below shows you what the Canvas calendar looks like. Make sure in the Calendars section on the right that you have CSE 190e selected, otherwise none of our events will show up. Your calendar likely has more events (including sections and office hours for this course).

You can switch between Week/Month/Agenda on the top right if there are too many events in the month view. You can also use the controls at the top to switch days.

You will click on the event called "CSE 190e Morning" in the calendar for that day, and then click "Click here to join Zoom Meeting: ..." shown in the picture below. Note that your calendar will likely have more than one event per day (for office hours), so make sure you click the right event! This will then launch Zoom so you can join the meeting (or launch the Zoom app if you have downloaded that).

Accessing Lecture Recordings

The course staff does not think the lecture recordings will be particularly useful, since the majority of the time will be spent having you actively working on problems, but we will have them uploaded in case you can't attend! All of the "content" for that day will be on Canvas. There are no recordings of office hours. The university recommends that these events should not be recorded for student privacy reasons since they are not recorded in a regular quarter.

To access recordings of the lecture sessions, you will need to use the Zoom in Canvas option. Navigate to Zoom in Canvas (using the instructions above) and then click on the "Cloud Recording" tab (red rectangle in picture below). The click on the link for a lecture on a particular date (red oval in picture below) to launch the web player for the recording.
