Dropbox: Overview
This overview lists the steps to set up and use a Dropbox. Setting up Dropbox folders for assignments allows you to collect and manage electronic files from your students. Refer to Dropbox: Basic to set up and use a basic Dropbox in Carmen. (Follow the links below to go directly to specific features.)
Step 1: Create a Folder
- Set up a Dropbox folder, including associating it with a Gradebook item and restricting submissions by date.
Note that Dropbox will not accept file names that include certain characters. We encourage instructors to include this information when they set up folders. See details....
Step 2: Manage Submissions

- Email students who haven't submitted an assignment.
Step 3: Grade and Leave Feedback
