Enabling RU Faculty Tools in your Canvas Course

Did you know there’s an easy way to access your Rutgers Photo Roster right inside your Canvas course under RU Faculty Tools? This convenient app allows you to instantly access and view essential student details including ID photos, RUID numbers, and NetIDs,  all in one place.

It’s a quick and easy way to access an overview of your enrolled students without leaving Canvas.
