1. Go to “Courses” and choose the course you’d like to assign a video lesson.  
  2. Select “Assignments” from the menu bar on the left-hand side of your page.
  3. Click the “+ Assignment” button.
  4. Give your assignment a name, and in the “Submission Type” drop-down menu, select “External Tool.”
  5. Click the “Find” button, which will open the “Configure External Tool” pop-up. Select Edpuzzle.
  6. This will open another pop-up window showing your “My Content” library on Edpuzzle (or prompting you to log in if you haven't done so already).
  7. Select your video lesson by clicking on the video thumbnail, then the blue “Next” button.
  8. On the next screen, choose whether you want to prevent skipping or turn on closed captions using the toggle switches next to each option.
  9. Click the blue “Assign” button, which will return you to the “Configure External Tool” pop-up.
  10. Click the blue “Select” button to confirm your assignment and close the pop-up.
  11. Then you can set your due date and click the “Save” button to save the assignment (which won't be visible to your students), or the “Save & Publish” button to send it to your students.
  12. Now your video lesson will appear in your list of assignments on Canvas! Your students will start to appear on your Edpuzzle assignment and class lists as they access their first Edpuzzle assignment link.

Best of all, once students complete the lessons their grades will automatically sync with Canvas!

Note: If you're a teacher using the Canvas app, please note that you won't be able to view video lessons using a mobile device. You can, however, view them on a tablet.
