Help with Video Conferencing in Canvas

Using Zoom

Faculty at BCCC Have access to a licensed Zoom account that includes cloud storage! To use Zoom for your course, you can request a license from the Dean who oversees your program. They will request you be added to the license list, and IT will invite you to join BCCC's account. For more information on BCCC's zoom account, you can reach IT at 410-462-7420 or helpdesk@bccc.edu.

Using Big Blue Button

Big Blue Button is a third-party video conferencing tool managed by Canvas. Instructors get free access to use it directly in your course under the " conferences" tab. Faculty can choose to use this tool to hold class without needing to leave canvas. Keep in mind, that recordings of course lectures are only retained for 1 week and cannot be downloaded using this tool.
