To Submit one or more files to a dropbox in your D2L course, students should follow these instructions:
- Select Dropbox from the navigation bar. This brings up the list of available dropbox folders (assignments).
- Select the link for the appropriate dropbox.
- Select Add a File to select a file from your computer. In the popup window, select Browse to find the file. Select Add to upload more than one file. When finished select Upload in the lower right.
- Enter any Comments to your instructor.
- Select Upload in the lower right.
- A confirmation page appears indicating which file has been uploaded.

Additional Notes
- To find out at any time what files you have ever submitted, select the linked number in the Submissions column. If you haven't uploaded any files, it is an unlinked 0.
- You cannot, as a student, delete a file you have submitted.
- If you submit a file with the same name as an existing file you previously submitted to the dropbox, the new file will be renamed: for example, "JamesReport.doc" to "JamesReport(1).doc". The previously submitted file will not be overwritten. Your instructor will see all them, along with the date and time they were submitted.
- Use the Cancel button, as necessary, to avoid submitting the wrong file.
