Is there a document template that can be used to create an assignment?

Hello everyone!  Is there a preferred document template that can be used for assignment creation?  I.E. a curriculum developer can complete a document and then upload it to Canvas and Canvas creates the assignment from the upload?

Hi there @PhilBlas ,

You may be able to find some templates and resources from the Canvas Commons that will work for you, if your school has it enabled. https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Commons/How-do-I-use-Commons/ta-p/1795

However, take note, that there may be school-specific templates for assignment creation that your admin might want you to use, so if that's the information you're looking for, I recommend reaching out directly to your school.

Does that help?

Along with using Canvas Commons or any institutional/school templates, you can create your own and then duplicate it. You can do this from within the same Canvas course or by using one course as a sort of template repository and then copy the assignment to other courses.
