Submitting Word Files

Saving and Submitting Word Files for Assignments

Save your work in a folder in your Documents folder or in OneDrive, if you have that installed on your computer.
- By consistently using one folder for saving work for this class, it will help you not lose your files.
Name your files with a name that describes the assignment. For example: Weekly Writing 1 or WW1
- This will help you not accidentally submit the wrong file. If all your files are named something like english, draft, or untitled, it's easy to lose the file and to accidentally upload the wrong one.

Name your file by clicking on the filename at the top of the browser window next to the blue Word icon. Typically, the filename will show something like "Document 1" until you rename it.
- I strongly recommend choosing a descriptive file name like Weekly Writing 1 or WW1.

The file will typically download to your Downloads folder.
Upload the file to this assignment by selecting the downloaded file.
