Attention Zoom users,

For the start of the Fall 2021 term, we have released some configuration changes to Zoom at the University of Alberta. Starting Saturday August 21st, 2021 the following changes have been enabled in Zoom: 

• Users will now be able to enter and share pronouns in Zoom user profiles.
• Instructors can now turn on Closed Captions directly within meetings by default.

As always, we encourage instructors to review our Zoom security recommendations before the start of term.

Please refer to the Terms of use for Zoom to review full details on the use of the service. If you have any questions about these changes, please contact us at eclass@ualberta.ca.

Regards,

IST eClass Support
