Description

This lesson has description about File and Folder resources.

Table of contents

1. File

The file module enables a teacher to provide a file as a course resource. 

Where possible, the file will be displayed within the course interface; otherwise students will be prompted to download it. The file may include supporting files, for example an HTML page may have embedded images. 

Note that students need to have the appropriate software on their computers in order to open the file. 

A file may be used for: 

  • To share presentations given in class
  • To include a mini website as a course resource 
  • To provide draft files of software programs so students can edit and submit them for assessment

2. Folder

The folder module enables a teacher to display a number of related files inside a single folder, reducing scrolling on the course page.  

A zipped folder may be uploaded and unzipped for display, or an empty folder created and files uploaded into it. 

A folder may be used for: 

  • For a series of files on one topic, for example a set of past examination papers in pdf format or a collection of image files for use in student projects 
  • To provide a shared uploading space for teachers on the course page (keeping the folder hidden so that only teachers can see it)
