Working with both Canvas & Google Classroom / Google Assignments

Please note that many features in Canvas vary depending admin console settings. If you have difficulty bridging between Classroom and Canvas, try Google Assignments!

Google Assignments are great in Canvas as an alternative to Google Classroom because they give each student their own copy which can be submitted with the share settings automatically aligned. Google Assignments is basically Google Classroom without the Classroom interface and instead using the LMS (Canvas) as the interface between teachers and students.
