• What's the difference between file uploads and online submissions?

Hi there, halperr@montclair.edu Welcome to the Community!

Here are the two guides that explain the differences:

How do I upload a file as an assignment submission in Canvas? 

How do I submit an online assignment? 

Typically, we used online assignment when using a plagiarism detector or when giving the student the option to upload via GoogleDocs, Dropbox of O365.  File assignment generally just meaning uploading a .doc, .docx or pdf form. 

Hope these help!
