Hey this is Brian with Instructure. I want to show you how you can add images to your
course pages.
So most pages inside of Canvas lets you add texts and also embed rich content into the
pages. One example of that is images. There's a couple ways you can add images.
Let's go ahead and edit this page, here you can see the rich content editor for
Canvas
Ah, you can do things like bold or italic your text, change your font-size add lists or align
your content. You can and images, formulas or rich media with a single click. So
let's go ahead and add an image. The first way you can do that is by
linking to an external image. So we go ahead and click this image icon,
paste in our URL and we give it some alternate text.
Click embed and there we go. We have a
flag image, we can go ahead and align it however we want.
We can also link to images that we've already uploaded for the course, just
click the images tab, you'll see a preview of all the images inside of this
course. You can click any one of them, size it how you want
and wallah.
We also make a possible for anyone to add high-quality images to their course.
so we've linked to the Flickr creative commons collection. You can go ahead and
click this find images and Flickr creative commons link.
Type in any search term you want and what you'll get back is a list of creative commons
images.
That means there freely available for reuse, you can go and find which image
you like to include, single click, and added to your course.
So as you can see we make it easy for users to
add images that are from external sources, from files they have already uploaded or
also from the Flickr creative commons collection.
