What's the "Common Cartridge HTML File to Page Conversion" in Settings of Course

I noticed there's a setting named "Common Cartridge HTML File to Page Conversion". But I don't understand what's the meaning.

I have tried to import a HTML file or import a zip file which contains a HTML file. However, both of them were failed.

I just wonder if it's because the environment I'm using doesn't have this feature, or if I was doing something wrong.

Thank you very much!

Hi @kunikotakahashi ...

I do not see that Feature Option listed on this page of available Feature Options:

Canvas Feature Option Summary - Instructure Community - 531316 (canvaslms.com)

I wonder if your school somehow added an additional, unique Feature Option to this list? You might want to have a conversation with their Canvas administrator or someone from their Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Learning team to see if you can learn more about this.

I may be totally wrong on this as well, and maybe what you're showing is a Canvas Feature Option, but I am not seeing it on the linked document that I provided to you.

I hope this will help in some way.

Hi @kunikotakahashi

The option you're describing is not available on the hosted version of Canvas, so I'm guessing you're using the open-source version and running it locally?

The setting is specifically referring to content that is imported in Common Cartridge format, not just stand-alone HTML files in zip files. Common Cartridge is an IMS format that is commonly used to transfer course content between LMS instances. Standard Canvas course export files are saved in Common Cartridge format, which is why they have a ".imscc" extension.

While typing an Announcement, sometimes midway, we need to check something for which we click on Grades or Assignments. Then when we return to Announcements, what we types simply disappears.

Idea for New Quizzes
I have used Blackboard, Moodle, and now work at a Canvas university. When grading quiz items. I want the ability to view all of the students' responses to a single item at once.

Collaboration within Groups
I'm an instructional designer working with a faculty member who wants all of the students in the class to work in groups to complete a feedback form together, with contributions from each group member.

Late deduction without an interval
My class policy is that late assignments can be accepted at professor discretion, but they will have a 50% penalty. This is a gate you pass through once, and there are no further penalties. If it's late, you simply get 50% deducted from whatever the score was. This happens regardless of whether it's 5 hours late or 5 weeks…
