Question
How can I connect to the Webex Classroom with the Webex Education Connector in Blackboard Learn or Ultra?
Answer
The Webex LTI allows faculty to integrate Webex into their Blackboard Learn or Ultra course shell to schedule class hybrid or synchronous online meetings. Students may join class virtually using a link in Blackboard. Course recordings are linked back into the course shell.
See our article for Adding Webex LTI to Your Blackboard Course for more information to add the Webex LTI.
- Open your Webex Education Connector to Start a scheduled meeting or click Schedule Meeting.
- Click Connect to video system.
- Search for or call a video calling system
- Enter the name shown on the Webex touch panel in your classroom.
5. Begin presentation by clicking Share in the Webex app. Record your course by clicking Record on the toolbar.
NOTE: If using the Webex LTI and "Automatically record..." has been selected in the meeting setup commands, the recording will start as soon as you click START Meeting. You will notice a red circle in the upper right corner of your Webex window and pop-up message indicating that Recording has started.
