Studio is a video tool integrated inside of Canvas, available to all faculty and students.
With Studio:
- Faculty and students can easily record webcam and screencast video within Canvas
- Faculty and students can create and manage a library of videos for use in Canvas (and to share outside of Canvas)
- Faculty can create discussion activities that are based on video (discussion comments are tied to specific points in the video)
- Faculty get data on student viewing of video
- Faculty can add quiz questions into videos; students respond while watching the video; results go directly into the gradebook
- Students can submit video assignments; faculty can provide feedback directly on specific moments in the video
- Videos can be automatically captioned and the captions can be easily edited
Studio is available to faculty and students from the blue global navigation bar in MiraCosta Canvas.
Studio is also available to faculty only on the navigation menu within a MiraCosta Canvas course to RECORD or ADD video content.
Within the Canvas Rich Content Editor, faculty and students can select Studio from the second row of icons to add a Studio video they’ve previously recorded, or to create and use a webcam or screencast video right there.
