Student View of Dropbox Folders

Students and instructors have very different views of the dropboxes. While instructors see the dropbox submissions, students see the dropbox instructions and have the ability to submit to the dropbox.

Instructors can preview dropboxes by Impersonating the Test Student.

• When students click on the Submit tab then the Dropbox link in the navigation bar, they will be taken to the Dropbox Folders page. This page will have a list of all the dropboxes.

• Available dropboxes will appear as blue links. Dropboxes that have not opened yet or are already closed will appear as black text and students will not be able to access the dropboxes or any information contained in them. If there are group dropboxes in the course, students will only be able to see the dropbox for their own group.

• Students can view their Submission History for a dropbox by clicking on the number that appears below submissions. They can view their Score under the score column and Feedback by clicking the View Feedback icon under the feedback column.

• When students click on the Dropbox Name, they are taken to the Submit Files page. From here they will see the dropbox information, such as the Dropbox Name, Instructions, and Attachments that the instructor has added under the Dropbox Information section. In the Submit Files section, they will be able to Add a File, Record Audio (e.g., for an audio assignment), or Record Video and add Comments about their submission.

• If the dropbox has a limited number of submissions, once they have reached the submission quota they will lose the ability to make a submission.
