Crocodoc is a tool that allows instructor and peer review annotations on online assignment submissions in Canvas. When students submit an assignment, the file is uploaded as an assignment submission to SpeedGrader. In the SpeedGrader app, you can add point comments on any document types that support Crocodoc annotations.

If a student submits a file that is not compatible with Crocodoc, the document previewer will still display the file, but Crocodoc markup and commenting will not be available.

Canvas supports .doc/.docx, .ppt/.pptx, and .pdf Crocodoc file formats (.xls/.xlsx is not available at this time).

The Crocodoc images for this lesson are shown in landscape mode, which may be easier to use on the Android device.

Note: Files over 100MB and password-protected files will not be converted by Crocodoc.

Canvas makes it easy to submit assignments on your mobile device by linking them from third-party apps, such as Google Drive and Dropbox.

The images in this lesson are shown for a phone display, but unless otherwise noted, tablet displays mirror the same steps.

Note: Before uploading an assignment to the Canvas app:

• The assignment must already be uploaded to the third-party app
• The third-party app must be installed on your iOS device

If your instructor allows you to resubmit assignments, you can resubmit an assignment.
