Multiple File Formats: Use Google

  • OR you can also share a Google folder (Public) and allow students to upload (students will be able to see and edit all items in the folder). This Google folder link could be added to a Course Site Assignment or anywhere in your Course Site.

Microsoft or specially Formatted Files: Use Dropbox

Dropbox has more total space allowances and you can create a private file request folder with deadline settings as well as specific naming conventions.
