You can add content to a module in two different ways:

  1. You can drag files (PDFs, Word documents, PPTs, etc.) from your computer to the module to upload.
  2. You can add pre-existing or new Assignments, Quizzes, Files, Pages, Discussions, and more by clicking on the “+” icon in the top right of a module, selecting the type of content you’d like to add or create via the dropdown menu, and then selecting the content from the list to add to the module or choosing to create new content at the top of the list.
A dialog box for adding content to a Canvas module. The window is titled "Add Item to Week 1: Learning Canvas" with a dropdown menu set to "Assignment". Below this are options to select existing assignments or create a new one. The dialog shows a list of content categories including Assignments, Discussions, Final Project, and Quizzes, with some sample assignments listed under them. At the bottom is an "Indentation" dropdown menu set to "Don't Indent".
