4.1 Canvas Commons

Overview

Commons is a learning object repository integrated into Canvas. You can use the Commons to find existing templates and content to import into your course, or to store your own reusable assets that you may want to share with others. The Commons offers three privacy settings for uploaded assets; you can make your uploads private (visible only to you), available to users at your institution, or available to all Commons users.

Here is an overview video about how to use Canvas Commons.
