How do I use Canvas to create a presentation for a class I'm taking at Molloy University? How do I attach the presentation ?
Hi there, @MichelleColburn ...
I think some more information from you will be helpful. What kind of presentation are you wanting to create? Since you posted this question within the Canvas Studio discussion area here in the Community, are you wanting to use Canvas Studio to record a screen recording presentation and submit it as part of an assignment to your instructor? Or, are you wanting to create a presentation (using something like Microsoft PowerPoint) and upload that PowerPoint file to your assignment submission?
If you could provide some more details for us here in the Community, then we can provide more help on what you can/cannot do within Canvas.
Thanks Michelle...looking forward to hearing back from you soon!
Yes — you can create and attach a presentation in Canvas Studio (or in Canvas LMS) and submit it to your instructor.
Here’s a clear/step-by-step guide tailored for you (as a student at Molloy University) on how to do that:
How to Create & Submit a Presentation in Canvas?
Create your presentation
In Canvas, go to Studio → Create → Screen + Webcam to record your slides and narration.
Or use an external tool like MagicSlides.app to quickly turn your text or PowerPoint into a ready-made presentation before uploading.
Upload to Studio
After recording or creating, click Save → your video appears in My Studio.
You can preview or edit it if needed.
Attach to Assignment
Open the assignment → click Submit Assignment.
Choose the Studio icon → select your video → Embed → Submit.
Tip: If “Studio” isn’t available, upload your presentation file (from MagicSlides or PowerPoint) using File Upload instead.
