Some courses require homework, lab reports, and other assignments to be submitted electronically.  If you complete an assignment on paper,  you will need to scan the documents to a PDF file.  It is important to make sure the scan of your work is clear and legible.  Improperly formatted or illegible scans may not be accepted.  Generally, it is better to use a scanner instead of a phone app.  If you use a phone, make use a scanning app such as Microsoft Lens or GeniusScan and not just the camera.  

Format

When scanning, select the color option.  The Black and White setting does not show up well.  Greyscale may work, but color is better for clarity, especially for lined or graph paper.  Select PDF as the output format.  Make sure the page size of the output is standard letter size.

Some academic departments allow students to use the Canon Multifunction scanner/printer/copier in the departmental office to scan homework.  Check with the specific department to see if it is permitted.
