New! Why aren my students files in the digital drop box?
Some students may be clicking on “Add File” rather than “Send File” function within the digital drop box. The “Add File” function simply allows a student to “add a file” to their personal drop box. Once the file is added to the personal drop box, the prompt display will read: “Posted on this date and this time,” but the file was not sent. If a student wants to send a file to the instructor, the “Send File” function must be selected. A new feature in Bb6 is “Assignment”, and it may be used in place of the digital drop box. Read more about “Assignments” in the Blackboard Manual.
