What is the best way to upload notes for students to write on? I want them to be able to watch my videos from canvas studio and fill out the guided notes that are in my modules at the same time on .
Welcome @bhoward94 to the Instructure Community!
There are a couple of options that I can think of. If the guided notes are on paper, I suggest uploading a PDF file. That can be linked from the content page where your Studio video is embedded. For online note taking, I suggest linking to a Google Doc with your guided notes. I do that often and use the view-only share options for the Google Doc.
Another option is to add /copy to the end of the URL for the share link, which forces the user to make a copy in their own Google Drive.
Here is an example that I have used in my history classes:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/14LjEwXpN09IQ2MGTNLWpzb0Rp0DQ1Wb-Gs0y6bsi-K4/copy
Notice the /copy at the end? That forces the user to create a copy of the document in their drive.
This same trick can be used for Google Slides and Google Sheets.
II’m going to mark my response as a solution, but there can be more than one. I hope our colleagues here in the Community can share other options.
There seems to be a change in my current rubric that it no longer shows different colours when marked via Speedgrader ie Red for Below Standard, Yellow for At Standard and Green for Above Standard. No it only shows Green across all Ratings. Is this able to be fixed?

Based on the Instructure FAQ, we understand that only the following fields are transmitted during a sync: Assignment Description Assignment Group Association/Category…
Does anyone have suggestions for bulk aligning questions at the quiz level, not the item bank level? I don't know much about API keys, but would one of these work for a bulk alignment? We have a school that is preparing for accreditation next year and they must get their quiz questions aligned to outcomes. We know they…
The most recent quizzes and question banks (including renames) are not showing up as options in the Course Import Tool. As I was creating a new quiz in one course (Classic), I went to add the questions from the Question Bank, but what I needed wasn't there. I went back to the other course to make sure everything was…
In the wake of the recent Canvas security incident, many instructors are rethinking how they protect their course materials and ensure continuity for students if the LMS becomes unavailable. A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward re‑distributing…
