Zoom - Canvas Integration

1. Click “Zoom” from your course navigation menu. The first time you click on this link, you will have to "authorize" the Zoom app

2. Click “Schedule a New Meeting”

3. Fill out the meeting settings

   1. Topic: the title of your meeting, e.g., your course name or "Office Hours"

   2. When: date and time of the meeting

   3. Duration: total amount of time the meeting will run for (you can enter a meeting early)

   4. Recurring meeting: meetings that will be used more than once in the course (e.g., weekly discussion meetings)

      • Example for a class that meets every MWF:

        • Recurrence = Weekly

        • Repeat every 1 week

        • Occurs Mon, Wed, Fri

        • End date = last meeting date

   5. Registration: 

   6. Video Host/Participant: select whether you'd like your/your participants' videos to be automatically turned on or off

   7. Meeting Options - Recommendations:

      • Enable join before host: We  DO NOT RECOMMEND checking this box. Only use this option if your meeting requires a password.

      • Mute participants upon entry: we generally recommend enabling this option for courses. Students can unmute themselves during the class.

      • Enable waiting room

        • For a class lecture, don't enable this

        • For office hours, enable this

      • If you'd like recordings of the meeting, select "Record the meeting automatically" and save the recording in the cloud. 

NOTE: If you are recording your class (either manually or automatically), please remember to STOP THE RECORDING or END THE MEETING, which stops the recording. Otherwise you might end up with, eg, 15-hour sessions that are trying to process on Zoom's servers.

4. Click Save. You will now see the conference appear under 'Upcoming Meetings' 

5. Notify your students of the Zoom meeting in “Announcements”

Once your meeting is scheduled, Students can find the Zoom session in their Canvas Calendars!
