The University Writing Center has a collection of SoftChalk modules that instructors can integrate into their Canvas courses. These modules provide lessons on writing. The instructions below discuss how you can use these modules for grades/credit through your Canvas course.

1. From Canvas, add a new assignment:

2. Name the assignment and add a description (if you choose). Scroll down. Set the points to ‘100’ (as every UWC module uses a 100 point scale). Under ‘Submission Type’ select ‘External Tool.’ Add the URL of the UWC module you’d like to use (you can copy and paste the links from the list below this guide). Scroll down to choose other assignment settings as you see fit (due date, etc.):
