The File Transfer view lists all of the files you send or receive.
N O T E
If you send a file to one student, the file transfer goes very quickly. However, if
you send a file to many students at once, the transfer takes longer and students
won’t necessarily receive the file at the same time. Transfer speed is affected by:
l
The variability of the student computers (for example, a mix of slow and
fast computers)
l
The amount of other network traffic
l
The speed of the network
