How do I insert a math equation using the Rich Content Editor?
Instructors and students can use either Canvas' equation editor or an external tool, EquatIO, to insert math equations or scientific formulas into various areas in WebCampus-Canvas. Both features can be accessed via Canvas' Rich Content Editor which is available in tools such as assignments, discussions, and quizzes.
EquatIO allows you to use more advanced features such as speech input for generating equations, more advanced math functions, scientific calculations, and predictive formula. Additional information on how to use both tools can be found below.
