I can’t add a file from Google Drive. What should I do?
If you are using a desktop, you can refresh the Google Classroom page. You can also try to check for errors on the file. For mobile users, make sure that the file you are going to upload is not too heavy in size as this will affect the quality of the upload. If all else fails, you can contact Google Help Desk or your accounts administrator.
Can a student upload a file?
Yes, as a reply to an assignment or quiz. Also, they cannot remove or add materials on any question as they are restricted by the systems administrator.
The MP3 file I’ve added does not work on my student’s side.
This may be a technical issue that you need to resolve by checking the MP3 and your student’s audio player compatibility. If they are using old versions of audio players, chances are high that those might not play at all. Ask your students questions about the audio player or the gadget they use.
