Using Direct Share

The Commons can be a great place to share, but sometimes instructors need to share something directly with a colleague. Individual Items (Assignments, Quizzes, New Quizzes, Discussions, and Pages) can be easily shared user to user within a Canvas Instance.  Modules can also be shared!

 Note: Direct Share only shares content within your Canvas account.

Where to access Direct Share in the More Options menu

 

Receiving Content through Direct Share

Content shared from user to user, within a Canvas environment, will be found in the receiving user's Account menu.

Accessing shared content

 

Copying Content to Another Course using Direct Share

In addition to sharing with other instructors, instructors can easily copy items from one of their Canvas courses to another. The copy is fully customizable, and any changes made in the new course will not impact the original.
