Using Wiki Pages

Wiki Pages are web pages that students and teachers can edit together. The instructor can set permissions to allow only teachers to edit the page, or the permission can be set to allow both student and teachers. The Wiki Pages can also be hidden from students.

Users can add text, images, Word documents, Power Point files, audio and video recordings, links to the internet, or even Canvas Assignments, Quizzes, and Discussions.
