Google Drive Assignment is an assignment submission type on CN. This article will explain it works.

Step1: select Generate Google Docs Template and click the blue link "Choose Template File from Google Drive"
Step2: if your CN account has not been connected with your Google Drive, you will need to allow CN to access your Google drive. Then, you will see Google Docs files from your Google Drive in this pop-up. Select the file you would like to use as the template for this assignment.
You will see the selected Google Docs file appears like this.
Option 2: Upload File from Google Drive: Students will be prompted to upload a file from their Google Drive to CN when they submit the assignment.
Option 3: Link to File from Google Drive: students will be prompted to select a file from their own Google Drive when they submit the assignment. Instructors directly access their Google Docs file to grade.
Complete the entire form and click the ADD ITEM button. The assignment has now been created.
Students Submit Assignment and Instructors Grade Submissions
Case1: If the assignment is set to Generate Google Docs Template, when students submit the assignment, they see this pop-up window.
Click "Open Google Docs Assignment" will generate their own Google Docs copy and take them there to edit it. Once students generate their own Google Docs copy, the blue SUBMIT will become active. When students are ready to submit the assignment, they click the button, a submission entry will appear in the course DropBox, where their instructor can click the link to directly access the corresponding student Google Docs copy.
Instructors can also go to their Google Drive to view student copies following this folder hierarchy: Google Drive>>course name folder >> assignment name folder.
Please note: institutions may set up a school-wide Google Drive folder to host all student Google assignment copies. Please read this article for details. If your institution set up the school-wide Google Drive folder, student copies will reside in the school Google Drive, instead of the instructor’s.

They simply click the "Upload File from Google Drive" link to select a file from their Google Drive and submit the assignment. A copy of the file will then be uploaded to CN. A new submission entry will appear in the course DropBox.
Case 3: If the assignment is set to Link to File from Google Drive, when students submit the assignment, they see this pop-up window.
They simply click the "Link to File from Google Drive" link to select a file from their Google Drive and submit the assignment. A new submission entry will appear in the course DropBox, where their instructor can click the Google Drive link to directly access the student's Google Docs file.
