Box.com



In my past experiences with Box.Com, my family has used this program to share files with each other. While my family are avid DropBox users, Dropbox does not allow for others to share videos and pictures as easy than on Box. Actually, all my childhood pictures are currently on a Box file, along with a video explaining the Stem Cell Transplant that my mom received over Easter Weekend. While I have used Box for looking at picture and videos that my parents have put up for our whole family to use, I have never used the program for personal use. This was very easy, just as easy as it would be to use on Dropbox. This could be used in the classroom for students to use to work on documents in multiple devices. Students can also collaborate by uploading documents to the same file.


The first screen, there are three options. One can upload documents to Box. For my purpose, I created a new folder to use.


The next thing I did was name the Folder. I also chose to keep this file private. There is an option to invite others to download.

Finally I uploaded the image to my new folder I created. I did this by clicking the upload button and selecting the file I wanted to upload.

When I logged on to my Box account on my IPad, I was able to access the image that I uploaded.
