There are a few ways to share Courses and Assignments with other teachers. Whether you're looking to build a joint course with another teacher or wanting to share custom assignments, your Courses and Assignments app is the best place to start.

Sharing an Entire Course

You can add a co-teacher to a Course, giving them the ability to use, copy, and edit course content.

This Video Demo below covers:

  • Adding a co-teacher to a Course

  • Setting permissions for a co-teacher

  • Making a copy of a Course for another teacher

  • Removing a co-teacher from a course

Adding a Co-Teacher to your Course

Adding a co-teacher to a Course allows another teacher to use, edit, and/or share the content in that course. This is ideal for sharing curriculum between two different teacher's classrooms.

👉 For teachers who are teaching the same class of students, it's recommended that a co-teacher be added to the Section, not the Course.

How to Invite a Teacher to Collaborate on a Course:

  1. Go to your Courses and Assignments app

  2. Click the gear icon next to a course's name or click the Settings tab in the top menu to access Course Settings

  3. Scroll down to the section that says Invite co-teachers to collaborate on this course > then add the teacher's email and press Submit

  4. Change the teacher's access level under the Teacher Permissions section above
