Sharing files and folders with my students in a safe way

Question

I am unable to find an effective way to share files and documents through an invitation with my students. I have tried to share the folder link by sending an email to the students in my groups but to my dismay I have noticed:
1) The students do not appear as viewers but also as collaborators, which obvioiusly I do not want.
2) The link takes them to "all" my folders in Box, not only the one I would like to share.
I have been unable to find clear instructions in the platfrom.
Thank you, Pablo Arroyo

Hi Pablo,Welcome to Box community!I recommend creating a "People with the link" sharing option for the file or folder you would like your students to access."People with the link: Anyone with the link can access the item and no Box account is required. For extra security, you can also set a password or expiration for the link, as well as restrict download and/or preview access for link viewers."Reference: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697094-Creating-Shared-LinksThank you for posting!
