We'd like to allow students outside of particular groups to read one another's Group Discussions for an assignment. Can we do this and how? Thank you!
Hi @kimberly_hall1 ,
I could be wrong about this, however with I'm reasonably sure that by default students are not able to have view-only permissions on discussions assigned to other students. Generally, when a discussion, especially in a student group (if that's what you referencing) is created, all students in those groups are able to post on the discussion board, and when a student tries loading in a discussion not assigned to them or their group, it will take them to the course home-page, and will tell them they don't have access to the requested discussion.
I hope this helps answer your question!
All the best,Noah

I did ensure the old tag was removed; however on a canvas PAGE he sees both pages the "ac" and "AC" Canvas Pages. I removed the assigned tags to the page and the one tag to the student thinking maybe if I remove and reassign…
Started testing the new Portfolio today. Our K-12 district is new to Canvas and never implemented a portfolio solution. I was testing the share as a studnet using the 'Anyone can view link' to an outside user = does not have a login ID for our instance of Canvas. As the outside user, I am able to open and read the…
