How to Embed Video in Your Canvas Course
1. To add Canvas Studio video into your Canvas class, you'll need to use the Rich Content Editor. To start, look for the V icon, which is the More External Tools button.
2. Choose Studio from the dropdown menu.
Instructors can also add Canvas Studio media assignments with the Canvas Studio integration. Instructors can grade submissions in SpeedGrader just like any other Canvas assignment.
View Collection
When embedding a video or audio file, any user can search for and view existing media and upload new media.
Users with instructor roles can also view uploads for individual courses.
When submitting a video or audio file for an assignment, students can submit Canvas Studio media through the Rich Content Editor as a Text Entry submission, or they can access their Canvas Studio media directly as a File Upload submission.
View Media
When viewing embedded media in the Rich Content Editor, users can use a variety of tools. Playback controls allow viewers to customize their own viewing experience. Students will also be able to comment on the video.
