No, Canvas does not have a feature to share student submissions in Assignments.
Some workarounds to achieve this:
- When you set up the assignment, convert it to a peer review assignment, by selecting the Require Peer Reviews option. Ensure that you have added the total size for the Reviews per user. For example, if your course has 25 students, then add in 25 for the Reviews per user. Students will then be able to view the submissions of the peers after the due date. After the due date, Click on Peer Reviews, and click Assign Peer Reviews button to make the submissions be available to students.
- Once students have submitted their assignments, you can download all the student submissions, then upload the downloaded files to a folder to allow students to access the files.
- Use a graded discussion. Select Users must post before seeing replies when setting up the discussion so that students need to first submit their assignment submission as a discussion post before seeing other students' submissions (posts).
- Create a +Groupset from People to create a single group in which all students in your class are assigned to that single group. Students can then access the Group Homepage to upload files.
One issue with this method is that you do not get to use the SpeedGrader to grade and annotate the students' submissions.
