Zoom links on your Canvas course site

Don't post Zoom links anywhere

• Posting Zoom links on a Canvas Syllabus page (or inside of a syllabus) is prohibited for security reasons.
• More about Zoom Bombings.  

Zoom is in the Canvas navigation

• A link to Zoom meetings is provided in the left navigation of your Canvas site.
• Instructional staff can "Schedule a New Meeting" (Zoom section, or other) using the Zoom link in the left navigation.
• Students can then access all Zoom meetings by using the Zoom link in the left navigation.

Canvas public-facing pages 

• The Syllabus page on your Canvas course site is public-facing. 
• All other pages on your course site are accessible only to registered students and instructional staff.

Use a Front Page (if needed)

• The Syllabus page is automatically set as your home page.   Placing materials other than a syllabus on the public-facing Syllabus page is not recommended.
• When needed, designate a Front Page on your Canvas site to serve as a landing page for students in place of using the public-facing Syllabus page:
  • 1. In the left navigation, choose "page"
    2. Create and publish a new page
    2. Set the page as the "Front Page"
    3. Choose your home page: select "Front Page" instead of "Syllabus"

Create, publish & designate a new page as a Front Page

• Select "Choose Home Page" to designate your Front Page as your students' landing page.
