Canvas Studio
Canvas Studio is a media tool that allows students and instructors to upload, create, edit, manage, share, and discuss audio and video files. Existing files can be used or new ones can be created with Studio's capture and editing tools. Quizzes can be embedded into videos, and the scores are automatically put in the Gradebook.
Studio can be found on the blue Global Navigation bar on the left of any Canvas page. It can also be found on the course menu of any course. No need to hide it from the menu because it doesn't show to students within courses. Students will access Studio through the Global Navigation bar.
Grossmont teacher Adam Deutsch created a great video that shows you how to access studio, record a video, review captions, and add it to your course. This will answer many of your questions and help you get started. Note that to access Studio in the New Rich Content Editor, just click the Plug icon and select Canvas Studio (View All if you don't see it).
