Digital Dropbox

The Digital Dropbox has been replaced for most purposes by the more robust Assignment Manager. Please use that function whenever possible. However for cases when students are not responding to an assignment or are turning in unique work, this function can be useful. Please caution your students to use short, simple file names for best results.
