Thank you for contacting FIU Law Library.

Generally, for inquires on remote teaching support via Zoom or Canvas, reach out to the Academic Continuity Course Conversion team via https://canvas.fiu.edu/coronavirus/

To take attendance in Zoom via Canvas

You can pull a report of attendance for any Zoom call that is scheduled through the Canvas/Zoom integration.  When you schedule a meeting in the Canvas/Zoom app, it’ll create an “upcoming meeting,” and generate a unique link students can access for the meeting (tell them to use the Zoom option in the classroom menu on the left in Canvas).  After the call goes by, the system will create a record and save the meeting details under the “Previous Meetings" tab.

If you click into "Previous Meetings," there’s a link for “Report” that provides a list of the students who signed into the call, and how long they stayed in the call. 

To take attendance in Zoom without Canvas

First, schedule the meeting in Zoom and require registration by selecting that option/radio button in Zoom, see https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/211579443-Registration-for-Meetings also see https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/201362413-Scheduling-meetings. 

Second, after the meeting, access "Reports" in Zoom to generate the attendee/attendance report. Consult this Zoom knowledge base article for more details on generating attendee reports: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/216378603-Generating-Meeting-Reports-for-Registration-and-Polling
