Web Conferences with BigBlueButton (BBB)

deutsche Version

The computing centre provides its own web conference solution based on the open source software BigBlueButton (BBB). This service enables audio/video conferencing with webcams, presentations and screen sharing. TU employees and students can set up a room and use a link to invite colleagues, students and/or external participants, for example, from projects. BBB is integrated into the learning management systems Stud.IP and Moodle via plugins and can thus be used for online or hybrid teaching. According to the Executive Committee decision of March 30, 2021, BBB is the preferred platform for online lectures.
