Click on your document which could be located in "My Documents" or on the "Desktop". Click on the document/file name and then click on the "Open" button to select it. Click on the word "Upload".
A new window, an e-mail window will open. You will see your attached document/file, a Comment box to type a message to your instructor and a submit button. Click on Submit to send your document/file to the dropbox. To check on it. Click on the dropbox tab again and then click on the assignment folder. Your document should now appear in the folder.
Some instructors may have different dropbox folders available. They may have you place your assignments in a folder with your name, a folder with a group name, a folder with an assignment or quiz name or a folder with a date. Look at the Course Home tab or the Course Content to discover how your instructor wants you to submit work.
