Is there a way to prevent teachers from uploading content to Canvas Commons but allow administrators to do it?
Hi @lsorroche ,
Thank you for posting on the Instructure Community!

Canvas Commons is a public object repository intended to allow all instructors, instructional designers, TAs, and admins share content from their course with either themself only, their school or with the public.
I hope this helps, even if it isn't the response you were hoping for.
All the best,Noah

Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
