Resources to help you create group work in Canvas.
Canvas Groups allow the instructor to not only put students in groups, but once assigned to a group, each group of students gets their own Canvas course that is connected to the course in Canvas. Within a group Canvas course, students can converse with eachother, upload resources and files to eachother, and they can complete group assignments.
