The new file setup page will appear, so start by entering the name of the file (this will appear as a link) and optionally a brief description. \u00a0Within the Content section, you can drag and drop files to upload them, as shown to the left. \u00a0Alternatively, you can click on the ‘Add’ icon in the upper left (highlighted with the red box above). \u00a0This opens up the File Picker pop-up window, where you can browse your computer for the desired file and then click “Upload this file” to upload it to Moodle. \u00a0Note that Moodle also allows you to browse and select previously loaded files under Course Files, Private Files, and Recent Files. Once a file has been uploaded, it will show in the Content window. \u00a0To finish adding the content, click on “Save and return to course” at the bottom of the screen. \u00a0Your file will now appear in the course resources section.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
