Canvas Studio Video Quizzing provides instructors, graduate teaching assistants (GTA), and course designers with a simple way to create engaging and impactful learning experiences through video. You can engage students using a video with questions to evaluate how well students comprehend the video content.

As an instructor, GTA, or designer, you can create and embed video quizzes in Canvas. This gives students an interactive video learning experience that provides feedback to help them monitor their own understanding of the video content.

Canvas Studio Video Quiz Features Include:

  • Create multiple choice, true/false, and multiple answer question types.
  • Support up to 50 questions per quiz.
  • Allow multiple quizzes to be added to one media file.
  • Show or hide question markers on the video timeline.
  • View class and individual quiz results as well as question item analysis.

After uploading a video to your Canvas Studio, use the Create Quiz function by selecting the three dots on the video card to get started.

Review the Canvas Community support guide for creating a Canvas Studio video quiz for illustrated and detailed instructions.
