Resources to Markup PDFs
Assignments provide a space where you can submit work for your teachers to grade and provide feedback on. This saves on paper and is more efficient than email.
To submit an assignment, first click on the assignment link on the course page. You will be taken to the following page:
Next, click the Add Submission button to be taken to the file submission viewer (see below).
At the file submission viewer, you have two ways to insert a file. The first method is to drag and drop a file from your computer's file explorer into the file upload area. After doing this, you can select Save Changes and your assignment will be submitted.
The second option for uploading is to click on the 'File' button, highlighted in red below:
Once you have selected the file button, click on Upload a File, and then Choose File. Once you have selected a file, click Upload this File (see buttons in red below).
Once your file is uploaded, be sure to click Save Changes below the file box to fully submit your assignment.
As an alternative to a written assignment, professors may sometimes post assignments as PDFs or Word documents instead. Please read below for information on PDF markup.
