Dropbox is a section where you can submit your projects and assignments
in an electronic format. This
also provides the instructor with a way to date submissions and organize
assignments.
You can use
the assignment dropbox feature to electronically upload a copy of your
assignment to a folder, where your instructor can retrieve it and mark
it.
You can verify
that your assignments have been submitted by using the "history"
feature - and avoid that annoying habit of submitting your files over
and over again, just to be sure they were sent (profs hate that!). If
you can see your file listed in your "history" record, then
your instructor can see your file too.
Once your
assignment has been marked, you can click on the feedback icon below the
folder name to view the feedback from your instructor or TA. If you do
not see an icon, then no feedback has been left.
