Hence, if you want to make study materials available for the whole length of the semester, we recommend setting up a Moodle course.
For re-occuring events with several people chairing the session, Zooms offers the possibility to plan a meeting with several dates. At the very bottom of the page you can choose to designate several chairs for your meeting. To do this, you will need the e-mail adresses that your chairs used to register for HU Zoom.
