Zoom (Synchronous & Asynchronous)
Using the Zoom Integration
Zoom is a web conferencing/meeting tool that allows many users to join at one time. Users can video chat, voice chat, text chat, and screen share. Zoom meetings can be used to provide a live lecture to students while sharing slide shows or demonstrating content. Zoom allows users to join with many devices such as desktop computers, laptops, mobile devices, or even call in via phone. Zoom meetings can also be recorded for users who may not be able to join the live session.
Utilizing the SUU sitewide license for Zoom will enable you to have all your recordings saved onto your Canvas account. This will help with planning out how you want to integrate the recordings and lectures into your course.
