Workflows for Students

These guides answer the question "how do I do X?" for students who already have working familiarity with Nuvolos. If you are new to the platform, start with the Student tutorials first - they take you from zero to your first submitted assignment by following along.

The guides are organised by where you are in your course lifecycle:

• Join and get oriented - accept your invitation, find your materials, understand the layout.

• Use applications and files - start and stop applications, work with files, navigate the storage areas.

• Complete and submit assignments - work on assignments, hand them in, review feedback.

• Save and recover work - take snapshots, restore from snapshots, version your work.

• Collaborate and use special resources - group projects, GPU access, course-specific tools.

• Finish and take work with you - leave a course, work with archived courses, export files.

Each page assumes you can navigate Nuvolos's Dashboard, sidebar, and breadcrumbs. If anything in the interface is unfamiliar, see Getting Started › Find your way around.
