Where to find the video shorts in student guides?

[tl-learning]

Hello, 

The Canvas video guides for students, instructors, and admins will be deprecated in December 2025. Where can I find a short video that provides an overview of Canvas's basic navigation for newly enrolled students? I could not find a video short in the Introduction within Canvas student guides. 

Thank you!

Hi @tl-learning,

Thank you for pointing this out. I was not aware that the "Video Guides" page of the Community was going to be deprecated.

I believe that message is referring to going into a specific guide (such as https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Basics-Guide/How-do-I-view-my-courses-in-the-Card-View-Das...) and watching the video from within that guide.

Unless it is in the process of being designed/developed, it sounds like there is not going to be a central location of "shorts" / videos.

I'll just add to @dbrace's response that several (not all) Guides do have these "Shorts" videos, but I am not sure if the plan is to have a video for all Guides or for just certain ones.  So, if you find that a written Guide doesn't have an embedded video just yet, it *might* be coming sometime in the future, but I really don't know for certain.
