Students will never need to download anything in order to view the videos they (or their classmates) have created using Submit. Each of those videos is saved in the teacher's Google Drive subfolder for the assignment and can be shared in the same way as any other Google Drive file could be.
To share files from Google Drive
- Click the file you want to share.
- Click Share or Share
(Learn more about how others view, comment, or edit files.)
- If you don’t want to send an email to people, click Advanced and uncheck the Notify people box. If you notify people, each email address you enter will be included in the email.
- Click Send.
- To stop sharing a file with collaborators, learn how to change sharing permissions.
To share folders from Google Drive
Here’s what people can do with folders after you share it with them:
- Can organize, add, & edit: If they're signed into a Google account, people can open, edit, delete, or move any files within the folder. People can also add files to the folder.
- Can view only: People can see the folder and they can open all files within the folder.
More about folder sharing:
- If you share or unshare folders with a lot of files or subfolders, it might take time before all permissions change. If you change a lot of edit or view permissions at once, it might take time before you see the changes.
