How To Create a New Meeting in Adobe Connect

Log into GAVS Adobe Connect at https://gavirtualschool.adobeconnect.com/
Remember that your login is generally your GAVS email address username@gavirtualschool.org
If you've forgotten your password, don't panic. You're only human. It happens to all of us. Just click the Forgot your password? link and we'll get that sorted out for you as soon as possible.
After you have successfully logged in, click on MEETINGS link in the upper left portion of the screen.
This will show all of your current meetings.
To create a new meeting, click on the NEW MEETING button.
Supply a NAME for your new meeting.
Supply a title for the CUSTOM URL. The title should contain no spaces. You may use hyphens to separate words. It's a good idea to keep the title short, if possible. In the event you create a title that someone else at GAVS has already used, Adobe Connect will instruct you to come up with another title.
Provide a short SUMMARY. A single sentence will do.
You need not worry about START TIME or DURATION.
English is the default language.
Very important: Under ACCESS, please make sure you choose Anyone who has the URL for the meeting can enter the room.
The Audio Conference Settings are fine. Leave them as they are.
Click the NEXT button.
You'll be taken to the SELECT PARTICIPANTS screen.
Select your department's admin group from the list of AVAILABLE USERS AND GROUPS in the left column. For example, if you are teaching a science class, you would choose, the Science Admin group.
Click the ADD button.
In the CURRENT PARTICIPANTS for your meeting in the column on the right, click on the admin group you've added. Notice that that the chosen group is currently a PARTICIPANT.
Click on the PERMISSIONS button and select HOST. Doing this gives your Department Chair and the CIs (Coordinators of Instruction) access to your recordings.
Click the NEXT button.
On the next screen click the FINISH button.
You'll end up at the MEETING INFORMATION screen. There's a URL there you can share with your students.
Clicking on your username will return you to your list of meetings. You can, if you wish, check a box in front of a meeting and DELETE it if you need to do so.
