Students submit assignments/homework for this class as files placed in the class drop box.
To submit an assignment/homework file for this class, click the Homework button at the top of any class page. The Homework button brings you to a login page. Enter your CATE username and password, browse to the file you want to upload and click the Upload File button.
Make sure you follow the instructions on the Upload page on how to upload a file correctly.
The class drop box automatically adds the name of the student who submits a file to any file a student submits.
Remember files with spaces in their name cannot be uploaded to our class drop box.
When you successfully upload a file to our class drop box, you will receive an email confirming your submission. If you don't get an email confirming your file upload, you should try uploading your file again.
You do not need to print most of your work for this class. You only need to submit the files you create for the assignments!
