How do I submit to an assignment folder in D2L Brightspace?

Assignments

Your instructor may ask you to complete course assignments within an online course.  For instance, you may be asked to upload a file document, compose a message, or embed a media file to complete an online assignment in the Assignments tool. Most assignments require a file document to be uploaded first, then submitting to the assignment folder. Refer to your instructor for guidance.
