Here are the instructions for submitting papers digitally. Be sure you leave plenty of time to upload in case there is a computer glitch; there is no way for me to verify that you had computer problems so papers that are late will have points deducted. For instance, a paper from a 9am student that is turned in between 9:01am Monday and 9:00am Tuesday will be docked one FULL letter grade. The paper is due precisely at 9:00am for the 9 o’clock class, or 11:00am for the 11 o’clock class, on Monday, October 6. Also, remember to bring a hard copy to class. All papers must be submitted in BOTH formats on the due date.
Submitting Assignments via SafeAssign:
1. Go to the “Assignments” link in Blackboard (http://courseware.ku.edu).
2. Click on the “View/Complete” link for the correct assignment.
3. Use the “Browse” button to attach your paper.
4. Click “Submit” to upload your attachment. You should get verification that it uploaded correctly.
Acceptable file formats for uploaded papers are .doc or .rtf. If you are using Office 2007, you will need to save the file as an Office 2003 extension (.doc) because Safe Assign cannot handle Office 2007 attachments (.docx). You can go up to “File”–>”Save As” and then choose the .doc extension. If you have trouble and you are using the Firefox browser, you could also try switching to Internet Explorer. I’ve never had problems with Firefox, but occasionally things do happen.
