Remember if you want to access your group space, look to the left for the blue menu bar and click on Groups, which will allow you to access any of your Canvas groups.

This video guide has some tips on how you can use the Canvas Group space, which allows the student's in the same group to work in an area set aside for just their group, complete with their own discussion board, access to Collaborations for any shared documents you create in Microsoft Word or Google Docs, a group announcement tool, access to Canvas pages they can build for their group and a place to upload files.

One of the most useful tools in Canvas is Collaborations, which allows the members of the class or members of a group in a class to work on a shared document or shared presentation and access it right in Canvas.

Though the video below approaches Collaborations from the point of view of the entire class, each group also has access to their own Collaboration page for just their group, making it possible to work together on shared documents in Microsoft or Google Docs.
