LEARNING TOOLSWorking in Canvas Groups and Collaborations

Group work in Canvas opens the door for you to collaborate with your peers, enhancing your overall learning journey. Within Canvas, you'll find a range of tools tailored for groups. These include a dedicated group site with a homepage, announcements, pages, discussions, file-sharing, a collaborations portal, and a Zoom portal. On top of that, there's a group calendar and a feed highlighting recent group activity. Alongside the course-assigned group work, if your instructor permits it, you can create your own study groups in the same Groups area.
