Please Note:

If you use the Canvas Google Apps LTI tool, consider installing Google Assignments LTI, a free tool developed by Google that helps instructors grade more efficiently and give students richer feedback on their assignments. Google Assignments includes all the features of the Google Apps LTI tool, except for Canvas Collaborations. Plus, you can:

1.  • Attach Google Drive files to an assignment. Google Assignments then provides students with individual copies of each attachment.
2.  • Embed Drive files with the rich text editor.
3.  • Add Drive files to Canvas Modules.
4.  • Accept Drive files from students for Canvas assignments.
