Re: How do your students turn in assignments electronically?

Garry,

EduPlatform allows you to send and receive file to and from students,
organized in independent "Workspaces" located on the teachers computer. It
is also a great one to one teaching tool as it includes most networked
classroom features you would expect for wireless environments and includes a
nifty Lesson Builder tool that allows you to merge available resources into
a single file that is then sent to the students through the platform.

Garry,

You might want to look at [ http://sourceforge.net/projects/cce-interact
]Interact.
It's an open source platform that has elearning modules. One of the
modules provides a secure tool for teacher/student exchange of school
work. We began using it beginning of this school in conjunction with our
1:1 implementation. We use it for most homework exchange and the
teachers and students are generally pleased with it.
