The Video Platform enables Content Creators to link Video Quizzes with Canvas Assignments, to properly sync grade results between the two systems. In order to achieve this, a unique Canvas Assignment needs to be linked to a unique Video Quiz created within the Video Platform. The workflow to complete this is summarized below.
Creating the Assignment within Canvas
The first step of the sync is to create a new assignment directly within Canvas from your Course Navigation bar.
- Once the Assignments page is open in Canvas, click on the + Assignment button.
- Add an Assignment name and assign the preferred amount of points intended to be given for the Canvas Assignment.
- Under Submission Type, select the External Tool from the drop-down menu. Then click on the Find button.
- In the popup window to configure the External Tool, select YuJa.
- This will display the YuJa Media Chooser which includes a library containing videos to embed, and a library of videos with quiz questions attached. Select the library labeled Quizzes, specify an open and close date using Publish Options, and click Insert Content to insert the Video Quiz into Canvas.
- Then confirm by clicking on the blue Select button under Configure External Tool.
- Specify the preferred Due Date, Available from and Until. Then, select Save & Publish.
