How to do I make a video in Canvas and post it so my students can see it? I am mainly using a chromebook, but am open to other types of devices if this isn't compatible.
Hi @JessicaSchell,
There are going to be multiple ways to do this based on what options your school/institution has enabled and also whether they have and 3rd party video management systems (like Canvas Studio, Kaltura, MediaSite, Panopto, etc) installed. I think the most universal option would be recording a video through the Rich Content Editor on a Canvas page or similar area which you could add ot a module. As these recordings are done via your web browser, I'd recommend making them on the shorter side (under 10 minutes or so).
You could talk to the local Canvas team at your school/institution (usually in the eLearning / IT / Digital Education areas) about other options they may have available, since we in the global Canvas Community here don't have access to that sort of information.
Hope this helps a bit!

We are looking to take better advantage of the portfolio offerings. Currently, it doesn't appear that evaluation portfolios are ready for multi-semester updating at the higher ed level. But with showcase portfolios, how are other instructors keeping track that students have completed the requirements? Just through visiting…
It would appear that there is a new interface for speedgrader and the rubric is now defaulted on, rather than having the tab with the option to use the rubric. I do not use the rubric unless I am deducting points. That means that I do not need rubrics very often. It looks like I can opt for "show old speedgrader UI" and…
Hello, I have some general, technical questions about Canvas quiz and activity logs and their interpretation. I am trying to better understand how these logs work from a technical perspective and what they are designed to capture. I am not asking about any specific case. Specifically, I am hoping to clarify: What types of…
