The ZoomSense project was started on 19 April 2020 as a response to our experiences of using Zoom for teaching.
A few people from the Faculty of IT at Monash University (and friends) got together to see if we could visualize what was happening in Zoom breakout rooms.
We are looking for help in developing this open source tool. So whether you're an academic, educator or developer, we'd love to loop you in!
There is now a thriving community around ZoomSense, where developers are using it as an infrastructure to rapidly develop augmentations to Zoom for teaching, media production and much more!
If you are a developer, head over to our GitLab documentation to get started.

"When you create an account, you designate yourself as a teacher or student. Teachers can create groups that students join when they create their accounts (students can join multiple groups and teachers can create and/or join multiple groups); when a group is created, the site generates a group code that must be entered to join. Then, messages, files, links, and assignments can be sent to whole groups."
