Introduction

The Canvas Conferences tool seamlessly integrates with Canvas, enabling quick setup of virtual office hours and online classroom meetings.

Best practices: Do not share FERPA information, like ISU ID Card numbers or student grades, in a Conference. Use the Canvas gradebook for sharing grade information with your students.
