Adding a File to an E-Classroom Folder

Introduction

Use this section to create a file within an E-Classroom folder. The folder where you add the file determines which users can access it. See E-Classroom Library Overview for details about users and access rights to files and folders.

This section assumes that you have sufficient permissions

All files must reside within a folder, and you cannot add a file to the Root folder.

Procedure

1.      In User mode, launch your E-Classroom course from your learning plan.

2.      From the Tools menu, select Library.

3.      Navigate to the folder where you want to add a file and click its folder icon (not its name).

An Add link will be displayed beside the Folder Options label at the top of the left-hand pane. An example is shown below:
