How do I add a Canvas Studio media assignment in a Canvas course as an instructor?
You can create assignments where students can submit videos or audio files from their Canvas Studio accounts.
Studio media submissions can be created as a Text Entry or Online submission type. Both submission types allow students to access their Studio account and select a video or audio file. Currently, External Tool submission types are not supported.
- Text Entry: Allows students to embed media using the Studio icon in the Rich Content Editor
- File Uploads: Allows students to view the Studio tab as a submission option
Notes:
- Students can submit Studio media assignments via the web or the Canvas by Instructure Android or iOS app.
- When an assignment using Studio is muted, submission comments are still visible to students.
