The teaching activities can be recorded and supported by a wide variety of interactive features such as breakout rooms, file sharing, chatting, quizzes, and a whiteboard. You can share a link to the fixed location for all course activities in Brightspace.
From 1 August 2025, Kaltura Live Room (sometimes known as Newrow) will no longer be available as a video conferencing application. However, Kaltura as a video portal (video.leidenuniv.nl) will remain available. This means that all recordings of Kaltura Live Room sessions will remain available on Kaltura after 1 August. For educational activities, Zoom is the preferred application for video conferencing.
