Arc is an interactive audio/video platform from the makers of Canvas. It allows students and instructors to upload audios/videos to Canvas. Users can then engage with the video content by commenting directly on the media timeline. 

Arc creates a private audio/video channel for your class and also includes data analytics, so instructors know who has watched which parts of a video—and where students lost interest. 

Teachers can use Arc as engaging course content or the starting place for discussions. Students can share audios/videos to discuss with the class and submit media for assignments and get direct, usable feedback from their teachers.

Arc facilitates the ability for Canvas users to quickly create screencasts, eliminating the need to learn more expensive software programs. More importantly, Arc provides closed captioning and transcription for all videos.
