Student folders let students upload PDF'S, videos, webpages, Word documents, and PowerPoints to a course Library. Instructors can use these uploads to create assignments like any other library document.
Adding a folder
- To add a student upload folder to the Library, click the green Add content button, select folder, enable Allow students to upload documents into this folder, and press OK.
Uploading to the folder
- Go to the course library.
- Click the folder with the blue upload icon.
- Select + Upload to this folder and select your file type. Your name will be added to the file name automatically. Students can only upload one document per folder.
Managing student upload folders
Instructors can move materials from the Library to the student upload folder by dragging the document using the three grey lines next to it.
To hide the folder from students, instructors can click Edit in the folder and select Hide this folder from students.
Creating assignments from the student folder
After students upload materials to the student folder you can create a basic assignment, multipart assignment, or a differentiated assignment.
If you like, you can create multipart assignments that include both student folder materials and materials outside of the specific folder. Course grouping settings apply to the student folder materials just like any other document in the library.
As with material outside of the student folder, multipart assignments with different parts corresponding to different documents will result in students being in different groups corresponding to the groups selected for each document.
