Im putting the finishing touches on a canvas course for next quarter. I would like to show a film. If I buy the film to be streamed, how do I make that available to students in my canvas course?
In theory, yes you can but it largely depends on where you're purchasing it and who is streaming it. For example, I have seen users purchase movies on Youtube, but then when they embed the video to the course - they still couldn't play it as every student would then have had to purchase it as well. Youtube basically blocked it from being embedded and streamed after purchase. The work around was the teacher hosting a meeting on Zoom while streaming it. However, I'm not suggesting that or other work arounds due to the legalities of the purchase. If it is via another platform, it may be best to ask them directly if it will work. If they give you a file with the video that you can save to your computer, that could also likely be uploaded to the course. Basically, you'll want to contact whoever has the movie and see if it will allow embedding and playing after purchase.

I recently had an exam provided as a Canvas Quiz in my class, and used some questions copied from question banks from other sections and prior years of the course. Some of those questions had "General Answer Comment" text already saved in them. I changed that text in several questions as I updated/changed the questions.…
I would like to suggest improvements to how collaborations function within Canvas LMS. Currently, collaborations are somewhat limited in how they can be accessed and integrated into course content. One potential improvement would be allowing collaborations to be directly linkable within Pages and Modules. This would make…
We are using the Learning Mastery Gradebook with an rubric on account-level. When we enter the gradebook, the sorting does not make any sense. How can we make the sorting so it makes sense to us. It feels like a randam sorting.
Can Canvas please create the option to use a "total points" system such that both the gradebook and the student grades page can show accumulated total points, not as a fraction of total points earned/total points possible? This would be SO helpful for progress tracking in a self-paced course where I do not want 0s entered…
