There are several options available to have web conferences at 91直播. Microsoft Teams, Canvas Collaboration (Big Blue Button) and Zoom are available to all faculty, staff and students.

Zoom is a web-conferencing tool that allows you to:

  • Hold real-time, virtual sessions with up to 300 participants
  • Incorporate audio, video, and screen sharing of any application or website open on your computer
  • Record meetings to the cloud and automatic transfer to Panopto.
  • Give your class an online place to meet and collaborate with each other right from your Canvas course

Canvas Conference Button (Big Blue Button)

You can create a conference in a Canvas course to hold virtual office hours and speakers. Conference invitations are sent out when the conference is created. To alert invitees about upcoming conferences, you can create course  in the Calendar.

Conferences can be created with as many users as needed, though the recommended guideline is a limit of 100 users. You can create multiple conferences, which are listed in chronological order by the date they were created. The most recently created conference will appear at the top of the list.

  • Users invited to a conference will not receive a notification in Canvas. However, depending on the user’s notification settings, they may receive a notification via email, text, and/or push notifications. To notify users of a conference in Canvas, consider adding an聽,听, or聽.
