Description

Zoom is a web conferencing system (video-centric) with video, audio, whiteboard, chat, and other tools to engage students in a synchronous (live) online environment. ISU Zoom accounts have been enabled with end-to-end encryption to facilitate HIPAA-based compliance requirements. The Zoom meeting link can be accessed from the left-hand Course Navigation menu in ISU Canvas. In addition, Zoom can be accessed via ISU’s Zoom sign-in page [isu.zoom.us].

Details

Faculty and Staff will be automatically assigned a Licensed ISU Zoom account when they use the single sign-on (SSO) option. By default, students do not need a Zoom account to participate in meetings. However, if they would like to host their own meetings or use some of the features found in zoom they can activate a Basic ISU Zoom account.
