Collaborate on Documents in Brightspace

About Document Collaboration

The Microsoft 365 LTI integration with Brightspace allows you to add documents from OneDrive to your courses. Using the Microsoft 365 Document Collaboration tool, you can share a document that students can access and edit.

For example, you can share an Excel file that students can update to track attendance, sign up for groups or participate in a collaborative activity.
