Airdrop Not showing up in the finder sidebar

Running macOS Sierra 10.12.6. Doing some training with teachers on 13" MacBook airs. Went to show them how to airdrop and asked them to open up their finder. In the sidebar, several of them did not have AirDrop showing. Is there something I need to enable?

MacBook Air, iOS 10.3.3
