Students will need to have the appropriate software to open/edit a downloaded file. 


If possible, the file will be embedded and opened inside of the course interface. If not, students will be prompted to download the file. 


Common reasons to add a file as a resource: 

  • Share presentations given in class (slides).
  • Include a mini-website as a resource (.html).
  • Draft files so students can edit and submit them for assessment, such as a Photoshop (.psd) file.
