Select your collaboration folder for your class

  • Select the folder named “Canvas” (upper case C)

  • One of those folders inside this "Canvas" folder should be named the same thing as your Course title. Select that folder.

  • You will see the document that you created using the Collaborations tool.

  • Put your mouse over the Document and you will see a share icon. Select that share icon

  • Start typing the last name of one of the students having a problem. Select the name of the student from the list that pops up.

This will send an email to your students with a link to the file. Unfortunately you will need to do this for each collaboration file you are having a problem with.
