Guides
When referencing the guides on this topic, please note that we are currently using the Google Drive/Apps Collaboration tool NOT the Google Doc tool.
Collaborations allow you to create shared documents for groups of students in your course within Canvas. You can use Google Apps to create a collaboration with a Google Document, Spreadsheet, or Presentation. This allows students to work collaboratively on tasks like group papers or note-taking. This page gives them (and you) an easy place to keep track of those collaborations, and also to set them up without having to swap emails.
You can select individual students, groups, or both to take part in a collaboration. You to add up to 50 users per collaboration, and all users can view and edit a document at the same time.
The teacher can always view any collaboration created in the course. However, students can only view collaborations that have been shared with them.
