Right now we use external tools to annotate PDFs.  It would be awesome if the SpeedGrader annotation tools could be used by students to annotate and then submit an assignment.

Thanks for sharing this idea. With regard to the ability to add annotations through the web browser, please add your comments to the discussion underway at https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Idea-Conversations/Student-PDF-Annotations-on-Web-Browser-Version....

Also, this can be accomplished when students use the Canvas Student app. As coach @KristinL explains, "if an instructor includes a PDF in the assignment's instructions/details, students are given the option to annotate the item right inside Canvas Student and then submit it! It saves things in-progress in case the student can't finish in a single sitting, too. How do I add annotations to a submission in the Student app on my iOS device? 

We've archived this idea to remove the duplication and keep the conversation unified in one place.

Thanks again! Stay safe, and stay well. 🙂
