Student Groups & Collaborations in Canvas

The Groups tool allows for smaller group interaction within a course. Instructors may use Groups to organize small group discussions, group assignments, and group grading. Students can use Groups to work collaboratively on projects and assignments and have or participate in group discussions. Within each group, students can create pages, announcements, collaborations, and discussions. With Collaborations, you can create a space for groups to edit a shared document in real time. By the end of this workshop, users will be able to:

Create groups

Add groups to assignments and discussions

Create collaborations using Office 365 or Google drive
