Zoom
Introduction
Instructors can use the features of Zoom directly within their Canvas course through the Zoom Learning Tool. Users with the role of course administrator, teacher, designer, and TA are able to schedule, start, and record Zoom meetings using the Zoom Learning Tool. These meetings can be used to facilitate collaborative work within a course including group projects, presentations, or discussions. Recurring meetings can be scheduled for purposes such as virtual office hours or tutoring sessions. Both students and instructors are able to view upcoming meetings, previous meetings, and recordings as well as participate in a meeting within a Canvas course.
