They probably want your entire project including, specifically, the
..java files.

Sounds like you're on Windows. I'm going to guess Windows 7.

1. Open a File Explorer.
2. Find the src folder underneath your Eclipse project.
3. Right-click on src and choose Send to, then Compressed (zipped) folder.
4. Upload the new zip file named src.zip. (You may wish to rename it to
something like MHancock.zip.)

Best of luck.
