The <br/>concept behind it is this; students have a "dropbox" folder in their <br/>Google Drive accounts that you have shared with them. To submit work <br/>students drag files into that "dropbox" folder. From there gClassFolders<br/> sorts submissions to the correct folder for each student.<br/><br/>The latest version of <a href="http://www.gclassfolders.com/" target="_blank">gClassFolders</a> is part of gClassHub which includes other useful scripts like <a href="http://www.freetech4teachers.com/2013/01/try-doctopus-for-managing-google.html" target="_blank">Doctopus</a>. This means that after your students have submitted their work through Google Drive you can grade it, write feedback, and have emails sent to students from one spreadsheet in your Google Drive account.<br/><br/>Some other highlights of the latest version of <a href="http://www.gclassfolders.com/" target="_blank">gClassFolders</a> include the option to add students to add students without having to re-create all of your folders and an option for moving students from one class to another without having to re-create folders. <br/><span style="color: #38761d;"><b><br /></b></span><br/><span style="color: #38761d;"><b>Applications for Education</b></span><br/>It does take a few tries to really understand using gClassFolders and Doctopus. Once you get the hang of it though it can save you a ton of time in the management of the files that students share with you.
