About Creating an O365 Collaboration

Your school may use Office 365 for Collaborations. If you have access to O365 for Canvas Collaborations, you can create a Word Document, PowerPoint, or Excel spreadsheet collaboration. You can create a collaboration with another student or a group if you have been given the permissions and group membership to do so. A collaboration must first be created and then other students or groups are invited to participate in the collaboration.

Creating an Office 365 Collaboration

1. 1. Select the "+ Collaboration" button.
  2. Choose “Microsoft Office 365” from the drop-down menu.
  3. Select "Word," "PowerPoint," or "Excel" from the drop-down menu.

  5. Select the name of a person in the course, OR use the "Groups" tab to add classmates to your collaboration document.
  6. Click "Save."

Note: You may add multiple groups to one collaboration, but all groups will be collaborating on the same document.
