Canvas Studio video quizzes can be added to a Canvas assignment, and quiz results are posted in the Canvas gradebook.
To post Canvas Studio video quiz results in the gradebook automatically, the video quiz must be configured as an external tool assignment following the directions in this lesson. Embedding a video quiz in the Rich Content Editor will not post grades to the gradebook.
Notes:
- Studio must be enabled.
- Quizzes must be created from your My Uploads page.
- Once a version of a quiz has been embedded or taken, it cannot be edited.
- When you copy Canvas course content, quizzes created in Studio will not copy and will need to be re-imported to the new course.
- If the quiz creation option does not display in Studio, this feature has not been enabled in your account. Please contact your admin for more information.
