myCSUSMGlobally Available Canvas Plugins
Globally available plugins are available for you to use in Canvas without needing to request them to be added to your course. Some are free to use due to an enterprise license (CSUSM license), as a part of our current Canvas contract, or a Chancellor's Office (CO) license. However, some require student subscriptions or additional costs, which are noted below. Note: Please be aware the availability of these tools may change at any given time, though we will do our best to provide notification if any changes occur.
IMPORTANT
