Can other students see other student's webcams in Canvas FFT using Big Blue Button?

Can other students see other student's webcams in Canvas FFT using Big Blue Button? If so, how?

I ran a conference this morning and each student could only see me (the teacher). Can students have access and see all webcams, including these of other students?

Thanks

Hello @SabrinaArnould ...

I am not sure of an answer for you, but I would like to bring @ffdixon into this conversation in hopes that he will be able to help answer your question. Good luck to you!

Hi @SabrinaArnould,

I am the product manager of BigBlueButton. While I work at Blindside Networks and don't speak for Instructure, I can answer your question.

In the Free Tier students cannot see other student's webcams.  If you upgrade to the Premium Tier (contact your Canvas Rep), webcams are visible to other students.

Regards,... Fred
