Have Students Submit a Photo of a Written Assignment in Canvas
In some cases instructors may wish to see a hand-written copy of an assignment (as opposed to .doc, or .pdf, etc. formats). Canvas allows instructors to require that the format of the submission is a photo file (.png or .jpg in this case).

2. Scroll down to “Online Entry Options” under “Submission Type”. Select “File Uploads” and then “Restrict Upload File Types”. Enter the appropriate type(s) of files, again png and jpg in this case.
3. Click “Save” or “Save and Publish”, and you’re ready to receive photos of written assignments! Caveat: this process assumes that students are able to take a photo and save it in the desired format. That could certainly be demonstrated in class if need be.
