Tips & Tricks > Submit a Presentation

The Student Presentations Tool, sometimes called Group Presentation Tool, creates a private space in the Managed Files area for student groups. This special, private filing area allows students to upload and exchange files. The main application of this tool is for students to share files to create a group project either for presentation to the instructor or to the class.
