Sharing with Students / UW Community
The primary sharing procedure with course outlines will be sharing with students. There's a couple of options here, but the most important thing to do is make sure your course outline is published.
Published course outlines can be viewed by any authenticated UW user, that means other instructors, staff, and students.
Once published, a URL will be available with the form: https://outline.uwaterloo.ca/view/1133xxxxxx on the outline’s info/settings page. You can also click "View" and copy the URL from the URL bar.

We don’t currently provide a way for unauthenticated users to get access to these URLs, so you will need to post this link on your own website or departmental pages, or send the URL over standard communications.
