[ARCHIVED] Google docs.

[110348]

Can anyone please tell me how load a google doc. into an assignment? I have tried following the instruction to different ways but I always get the same result. It asks the student for authority. I am a elementary school teacher so the students don't have google accounts set up. #google assignments‌
