[ARCHIVED] ConferZoom Attendance

[brad_millar]

Does anyone know if it's possible to take attendance on Zoom? I see the following and assumed that after my meeting a list of attendees would show, but that didn't happen:

I *think* you have to do that from your Zoom home page, through the Report tab. This might help: https://www.csulb.edu/sites/default/files/u45596/how_to_take_attendance_with_zoom.pdf

Thanks very much!

I discovered that Zoom actually keeps track of participants; what I didn't know is that it takes about ten minutes after the conclusion of the meeting for that list to be generated. It's working well for me.

Yes, I figured that out eventually. It takes about ten minutes for Zoom to generate the attendance, but once it does, the report is very helpful.

Thanks for your reply!

I know this does not directly answer your question, but I thought it worth sharing.

Have you thought of using Canvas Conferences instead? We are using the paid version and it gives a great report for educators of student attendance including:

• 'When the student joined
• When the student disconnected
• Total online duration
• Activity score showing how much they participated.

This has been a lifesaver for us in taking attendance and quantifying exactly what was required to be seen as "In attendance".
