Students are completing an assignment using the "Record Media" option in Canvas. A few students' recordings do not include audio.
Is there a place to check that Canvas is allowed to access their microphones or to change allowances if they've been selected already?
Any other suggestions?
This is more likely a browser setting. Have them go to the assignment in question, then look for a little icon just to the left of the web address. It might look like some lines/circles or a lock. That is your site info. Click on it and select Site Settings. Look for Microphone on the list and see what it says. If it says Block, then change it to Allow or Ask. Sometimes, when asked, students will hit an option that blocks use of the microphone. Once set, you have to go into settings to change it. See if that works first, then let us know if it does not work (or is already set to Allow).
Hi @KATHLEENSCBMS,
I know that @JeffCampbell provided a recommendation, you can also check the settings in web browser aspect of the Chromebook by checking the "Privacy and security > Site settings."
Google's guide at https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/114662 can help with that.
If the Chromebooks are managed by an IT Department: Another option is for your IT Department to consider configuring https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/?policy=AudioCaptureAllowedUrls and https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/?policy=VideoCaptureAllowedUrls.

We are looking to the Portfolio option but I have a few things I am not sure of that would be crucial to be able to apply the way it is needed. One, can you have the portfolio follow the student through the entire program (five total semesters) seamlessly or is it just going to be one semester? We have a clinical portfolio…

Is there a way for me to create a rubric that shows BOTH points and a letter grade, while the Gradebook in both my view and student view shows JUST points? I tried setting up the rubric showing a letter grade in the grading scheme, and a letter shows in the Assessment box…but then my gradebook also shows the letter grade,…
Our institution is setting up 9 institutional outcomes in Canvas. Several of our outcomes have multiple skill sets within the rubric. For example: Critical Reading – Skill Set A Critical Reading – Skill Set B Critical Reading – Skill Set C Our understanding is that Canvas Outcomes data reports can provide the overall/total…
I am just curiousas to why there is not a field to enter a description for an outcome at the account level? Or at least edit the rating when you attach/link an account level outcome to a rubric. When you create a new criterion for a rubric, you enter a decription for a rating, but for an account level outcome.
