The Dropbox tool replaces the need for you to mail, fax, or email assignments to your instructor. You can use the Dropbox tool to submit assignments online by uploading their files to designated folders where your instructor can pick up the files for grading and post helpful information. You can upload more than one file to a single Dropbox folder, but once the file has been submitted it cannot be removed.
Select the Dropbox link on the course home navigation bar to view a list of dropbox folders created by your instructor.
From this page you can view:
• A list of available folders
• Submission and feedback information
• Previously submitted assignments (by clicking history)
