This will create a single recurring meeting, which is available to use right away with no defined start or end date. It can be reused over and over throughout the semester. You can think of it as your physical classroom, which is always there.
Typically we recommend faculty choose this option so they do not have to recreating meetings over and over for each class they want to teach.
Once created, Canvas will automatically send an announcement with a link to the Zoom page in your course. Additionally, you may consider editing the announcement or creating a new announcement to specify when your Zoom Meeting will take place. For example, if your class meets on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 10:00 AM, your Canvas Announcement can direct your students to log in to Canvas, access your Canvas site, click on Zoom in the Course Navigation, then click on the Zoom “Course Meeting” in order to access your Zoom meeting during your class times.
This option is recommended for holding virtual classes in Canvas.
