Picking up a file from the Digital Drop Box

You can pick up student work from the Digital Drop Box. To do so:

1. Click the course title on the My CourseCompass page.

2. Click Control Panel from the Course Home page.

3. Click Digital Drop Box under Course Tools.

4. Click the link to the file you want to pick up.

5. Depending on your setup, the file may open in CourseCompass or a prompt may appear, giving you the choice to open the file or to save it on your computer.

6. If the file opens in CourseCompass, you can save it by selecting Save As from your browser's File menu. Click your browser's Back button or another CourseCompass tab to continue.

7. If a prompt appears, click Open it to launch the program in the application with which it was created (presuming you have the application on your computer). Click Save it to disk to display the Save As box, and then indicate where you want to save the file. Click OK to return to the Control Panel.

The Digital Drop Box indicates the status of each file:

• Files added but not yet sent are "Posted."

• Files added and sent are "Submitted."

• Files received but not yet picked up are "Received."

• Files received and picked up are "Submitted" and "Received."
