Students can select a file from the Digital Drop Box to send to the Instructor or select a file not in the Digital Drop Box on the Send File page. A file sent to the Instructor that is not in the Digital Drop Box will be added to the Student’s Drop Box when it is sent.
Files that are added to the Drop Box but not sent will show the date and time posted. Once the file is sent to the Instructor it will show the date and time submitted.
Note: The date and time displayed in each instance is not the date and time on the user’s machine, rather, it is the date and time on the Blackboard Learning System server.
