Hello,  I have set up my assignments but I'd like to offer places within different modules for students to be able to submit the assignment.  How do I create a link in a page to allow for an assignment submission?

Thanks.

Hi Marci

The assignment can only be submitted from the actual assignment page, but you can easily link to it from about anywhere else in Canvas.  To link from a Module, just click the + icon to the right of the Module title and select it from the list of Assignments.  You can do this from multiple modules if you'd like.  To link from a page, announcement, discussion, quiz, or really anywhere you have the Rich Content Editor to work with follow these steps:

  • Go to the page and click the Edit button
  • In the Rich Content Editor click where you want the link to be
  • In the Content Selector on the right side of the page, under the Links tab click Assignments, and then click the Assignment to link to.

Here is a guide page with more specific instructions https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-12985-415265828
