Zoom Webinars (up to 1,000 participants)

A Zoom webinar allows a host (MSU faculty and staff) to broadcast content to up to 1,000 participants. Larger licenses are available and can be requested by contacting msue.online@msu.edu.

Both the webinar host and panelist have full access to the microphone, camera, recording, and screen sharing options. The host has the ability to change roles of participants (such as granting an individual panelist rights) and start the webinar. The webinar attendees can use the chat, poll, or question/answer tool to interact with the host and panelists. Webinars are ideal for larger audiences. For example, if you schedule a large Zoom meeting you would need an individual to monitor participants and continuously mute microphones for anyone who should not be talking.

Faculty, staff and students may upload media content to the MediaSpace server which automatically converts and optimizes your media for distribution on the web. Once uploaded, MediaSpace provides links and embed code that you can use to share your recording.
