Developed by Canvas, Commons is a feature that allows instructors to create their own learning object repository to more easily reuse course materials in other classes. Content placed into Commons can also be shared with an instructor's colleagues at UC Berkeley, as well as with instructors at Canvas-using institutions around the world.
For more information, please see this Canvas Guide: What is Canvas Commons?
Interested in trying out content from Commons, but don't want to install it into a live course site? Please contact bcourseshelp@berkeley.edu to request a sandbox site, where you can review the content and decide whether it is a good fit for your course(s).
