Instructions

You must use the following file name format for identifying your spreadsheets: assignment number followed by your last name. For example, if Pat Smith is submitting a spreadsheet for Assignment 2, the file should have the name: assignment_02_smith.xlsx

Create a bookmark to the grader's UMdrive account and upload your work to that location each week. The instructions for creating the bookmark are listed below.

1) Log in to the UMdrive website at http://umdrive.memphis.edu. The log in page should look like this:


2) Enter your UUID and password and click on or press enter. The basic UMdrive page should look like this:


3) Create a bookmark to the grader's UMdrive account. First click on the Bookmarks link at the top left of the page and then Manage Bookmarks.  When you do this, the page should look like this:


4) Next click on and you should see the following page.

On the Bookmark Name: line enter CIVL1101 and then on the Directory: line enter:  /cvcamp/CIVL1101
(Note: the path name is case sensitive).

Next, click  


5) Note that the bookmark CIVL1101 should now appear in your Bookmarks section of the page.

NOTE: The bookmark only has to be set once. DO NOT delete this bookmark. If you do, please see Dr. Camp for help to reestablish the bookmark.


6) To upload a file into the CIVL1101 bookmark, click on the bookmark and than click on button on the main UMdrive page. The Upload page should look like this:


7) Click on and choose the directory and file name of your assignment and click . Remember to follow the format for naming your files (i.e. assignment_02_smith.xlsx). If your upload is successful, you will be returned to your main direction on the UMdrive.


8) Next you must submit your uploaded assignment file by copying it to the bookmarked directory. Normally, the bookmark directory will have only write access, so you will not be able to "see" you file in the bookmark directory.

First, click on the the file you are submitting for the assignment.

Next, click on the button and the following page should appear.

Check pull-down menu at the end of the Destination entry and select the appropriate Bookmark. In this case, CIVL1101 and click

Note the message near the top of the page: "assignment_02_smith.xlsx was successfully copied to /cvcamp/CIVL1101/assignment_02_smith.xlsx" -  this is the only confirmation you will receive that the file transfer was successful.

 

If you have questions about how to create the UMdrive shortcut or submitting your work via the UMdrive, please contact Dr. Camp.
