Canvas: How to View Recorded Lectures

Being able to rewatch lectures is excellent because it allows you to watch class lectures on your own time and place. This tutorial will show you exactly how.

 

Note: This is only for classes where the professor chooses to record lectures. This does not apply to every class.

 

  1. Open up your canvas dashboard.
