TechConnect Zoom Student Information

TechConnect Zoom is a tool within Canvas that allows instructors and students to communicate with each other in real time. If enabled within your Canvas course, students can just click the TechConnect Zoom link in the course navigation at the appointed time to access this web conferencing software. Your instructor may also choose to provide a link on a page within the course.

If you haven't used TechConnect Zoom before, follow the on-screen instructions to download and open the Zoom software and join the meeting. You will be the only participant in the meeting.
