Zoom class recordings retention period extended to one year

To enhance students' learning and class revision experiences, we have extended the retention period for Zoom class recordings from one semester to a full academic year, effective from 2023/24 Semester 2. Furthermore, we urge both instructors and students to utilize the newly introduced Zoom features designed to enrich their recording revision experience.

  • For Instructors:

The newly introduced Zoom trim and editable transcript features are powerful tools that empower instructors to easily remove any unnecessary parts of the recordings and modify the transcript before it is released to students. This feature enhances instructors' control over the content they share, ensuring that only the most pertinent and useful information is disseminated. For more details on the Zoom trim feature, please refer to [PPTRecording].

It allows students to swiftly locate specific topics within the class recordings, thereby making the revision process more focused and effective.
