Canvas Commons is an area where ACU faculty and staff share resources for easier transfer between courses. For instance, video tutorials to help students become familiar with Canvas, or resources a lead instructor intends to share with other instructors. You could import these resources to your course by following these instructions:
1) Log in to Canvas (acu.edu/canvas);
2) Go to your course in Canvas;
3) Click on “Import from Commons” on the course home page (towards the right);
4) Search for “Abilene Christian University” in the search area;
5) Find the content you need (such as “Quick Start Videos for Canvas”);

7) Click on the course from the list and import will take place. ![Import from commons](http://blogs.acu.edu/adamscenter/files/2015/08/choose-course-300x113.png)

8. Now, go back to your course, find the module and customize it based on your needs. If there are a few things you would not use, you can remove them, or you can add additional content that has not been included in the Commons resource you just imported.
