TechConnect Zoom for Canvas
Faculty Guide
‘TechConnect Zoom’ is the new Canvas integration (replacing the old ConferZoom integration) that will offer more scheduling options, faster recording downloads, and applied Zoom updates. The new app appears in your Canvas navigation and is a direct connection to Zoom. The interface looks just like Zoom, because it is Zoom! Click on the ‘TechConnect Zoom’ app in course navigation. The menu tabs include:
- All My Zoom Meeting/Recordings or Course Meetings/Recordings
- Schedule a New Meeting
- Import a Meeting (icon is the 3 vertical dots)
- Upcoming Meetings
- Previous Meetings
- Cloud Recordings
* When there is more than one instructor in the course, all meetings/recordings for all instructors can be viewed; or view only your meetings/recordings. The option to toggle between the options is to the left of the ‘Schedule a New Meeting’ button.
Import a Meeting
Meetings scheduled in the ConferZoom app in Canvas can be imported into the TechConnect Zoom app.
Locate the ‘Session ID’ in the ConferZoom app by clicking on the ‘More Details’ link that appears when you click on the Topic (meeting title)
This step will also trigger the event to appear in your account on www.conferzoom.org. The information below the ‘Start Time’ indicates this was a Canvas scheduled event.
