Student’s having trouble with getting onto Zoom? 

1. Go to zoom.us, click sign in, say “Sign in with Google”, make a practice meeting and then start it. It will ask you to download zoom then will tell you it’s disabled by admin. Wait three minutes and you’ll notice it goes through and you’ll see the zoom icon at the top in your extensions. You can also close that window that says disabled by admin and say Launch in Browser. Or, watch these two examples from a student’s experience (credit to Marco):

Example 1: Using the Extension    *    Example 2: Going from the link
