File management tools
Files
The 'File' resource type can be used to upload and display a variety of resources on SOL (for example, PowerPoint, Word document, Excel sheet etc.).
Where possible, the file will be displayed within the SOL interface; otherwise students will be prompted to download it.
There are two ways to add files; drag and drop files on unit pages (with editing turned on) or adding a file through 'Add an activity of resource'.
Remember: Students need to have the appropriate software on their computers in order to open the file.
