ACME - Notes
The Notes feature in ACME is useful
for uploading class notes, having students submit assignments or
having a place for students to collaborate on a project together.
ACME supports many document types to be uploaded, the only stipulation
is that files can only be uploaded if they are less than 5 MB. It
is recommended, however, that files over 2 MB, should be loaded
on Plato (see Plato).

Creating a Folder
When you create a folder in ACME,
it defaults to a 'normal' folder. This means that students can not
upload to it and can only download from it. This is the type of
folder that is recommended for Faculty to upload class PowerPoints
to.

Group Folders
Students can collaborate on projects
with the use of group folders. By default, all group folders are
open to the entire class, but you can have the access restricted
so that only the selected users get access to it. (This means that
students will have access to upload and download files from the
folder.)

Assignment Folders
Acme can be used to upload assignments,
where only the instructor can access them. The instructor can then
correct the assignment and re-upload it with comments for the student
to view. For large assignments like webpages or videos, it is recommended
that Plato be used (see Plato).

Restricting Access
All assignment and group folders can
have their access level changed so that only the specified users
can assess the folder and the files that are in it.
