Davis may be interested. We're currently planning to block YouTube next year unless a teacher clears a video through Canvas Studio.

Hi,
We are currently seeking a small group of districts to participate in a beta rollout of the YouTube Education Player in Canvas. This pilot would involve installing a Canvas LTI integration and providing feedback on functionality and classroom use.
To move forward with licensing, we need to reach a minimum threshold of approximately 208,000 student licenses across participating districts.
If you’re open to participating, we’d appreciate your input on a few questions:
1. Would your district be interested in joining the beta rollout? 2. Would you be willing to contribute financially toward the initial licensing required for the pilot? (Estimated at approximately $0.12 per student.) If so, approximately how many student licenses would you anticipate purchasing? 3. If the pilot is successful, would your district be interested in continuing with a full license?
Please let me know if you’d like additional details or have any questions.
Cheers,
Justin Brooksby
