Meeting

A Meeting is a live session. The course does not host it — it schedules it with the provider and gives the learner a way in.

The editor

Field	Notes
Provider	Zoom or Teams
Kind	for Zoom: Meeting or Webinar
Topic	the session name
Agenda	what it covers
Start	date and time
Duration	a number plus a unit — minutes or hours
Time zone	which zone the start time is in
Organizer	the account that owns the session

Once it is scheduled, the activity carries the meeting id, the join link for learners and, for the organizer, a separate start link — plus a passcode when the provider issues one.

Steps

1. Create a meeting with Zoom, a topic, an agenda, a start an hour from now and a 60-minute duration.
2. Save, reopen, and confirm the join link exists.
3. Change the start time and the duration, and confirm the change reaches the provider.
4. Switch a meeting to Teams.
5. As a learner, open the activity and use the join link.
6. Set the time zone to something other than your own and check the displayed time.

What to check

• The time the learner sees matches the time zone that was set — this is the field most likely to be wrong.
• Rescheduling updates the existing session instead of creating a second one.
• The learner gets the join link, never the organizer’s start link.
• A passcode, when there is one, is shown to the learner.

Where it usually breaks

• Timezone drift between the editor, the learner view and the provider.
• The join link disappearing after an edit.
• A duration in hours being read as minutes.

Note

This activity depends on a working Zoom or Teams integration in the tenant. If the provider is not configured, failures here are environment, not product — check with the team before reporting.
