Share learning resources in Canvas
Have you developed learning resources or support materials that you want to share with colleagues? In Canvas, you can find and share course materials through the Canvas Commons resource library. You can also share a learning resource directly with a colleague using the "Send to" and "Copy to" functions. Here you will find guides to these functions and how to take copyright into account when sharing materials.
