Faculty typically have folders with Read access only for students to pick up assignments or readings. Drop folders are set with Write permission only to allow students to drop assignments to the folder, but not open it or make changes to it. Only files related to student assignments should be stored in the Faculty Box folders. The Faculty Box directories are backed up every night. However, it is recommended that you make sure you have an additional backup of important documents.
Guidelines are available on the web.
All web pages and folders for classes are deleted at the end of the semester. If your students are working on a shared project they may need common server space. If your class needs an account on an academic server to share work with other students, contact the Director of Instructional Technology. Help is available for planning projects and supporting faculty in development of applications. For more information, contact the Director of Instructional Technology.
