How do I submit an assignment in WebCT?
A. The way you submit an assignment will depend on how the instructor has set up the assignment. Assignments require you to submit your work as an attachment. To submit an attachment, go to the assignment, click on the ‘Add Attachments’ button, click on the ‘My Computer’ icon and then browse to the file you want to upload. Once you have selected the file, click on ‘Add Selected’, you can now save your assignment as a draft or submit it. If the assignment asks you to submit a webpage, you will need to save the webpage(s) in one folder, including all of the pictures, buttons, other pages or information. Create a zip file out of the folder, upload the zip file and then select your ‘start’ page. You will have the option to preview your webpage before submitting the assignment.
Before you submit your assignment, it is important to know how your instructor wishes to receive your file. Some instructors ask that you send assignments as an attachment to an email, while others will make use of the WebCT assignment tool. Check the syllabus or ask your instructor to find out what method is appropriate for your course. If your instructor is using the WebCT assignment tool, follow the instructions in this tutorial. Once you have completed and saved your assignment AND you are ready to submit it, you will need to first upload your assignment. Uploading a file is a process of locating the file on your computer and then attaching that file to the structure of WebCT. *Note: Pay attention to the instructions. Your instructor should tell you what format your assignment should be prepared in and the naming convention for the file(s). • To begin this process, find the Assignment tool in your WebCT course and click on the link. • You should now see a listing of the assignments
