Dear Teacher: Direct Share

2589

Dear Teachers,

[Insert a customized greeting for your faculty and staff].

Canvas has a great (new) feature that can make is much easier to share your content with your colleagues. It's called DIRECT SHARE.

You can directly share assignments, discussions, quizzes, and content pages with a colleague AND you can also send those same items to a different course that you teach... DIRECTLY (not using the course Import tool). Take a minute to look at the links attached to see how to share assignments. Follow the same process to share discussions, quizzes, and content pages!

It's a much easier than the Canvas Commons (even though that is still pretty helpful to share Modules and Courses with each other), especially if you want to send something quickly to your PLC or just copy a great resource from one course to another!

Hopefully that tip can help you feel more confident and powerful on Canvas!

She earned a BA in History (minor English Language and Literature), BA in Russian Language and Literature from Brigham Young University, and a MAT in Teaching from the University of Southern California.
