Adding Content to Learning Unit

Follow these steps to add a file to your course:

Adding a file is unique to a learning unit, in other content areas choose Add Item to include files.

  1. Select a content area such as Assignments.
  2. In the top right corner click "Edit View".
  3. On the new page in the top menu bar click "+File".
  4. Input the name of the file.
  5. You can then browse for the file you want to upload.
  6. You have the option to name the file link but this step is not necessary. The file's name will be the default link name if left blank, for example if you have a Word document named "Paper_1.doc" the link name will be "Paper_1.doc". If you input a link name such as "Paper 1"  for the Paper_1.doc, the link will appear as "Paper 1" and not "Paper_1.doc".
