Course files tool

VITAL support for staff


	What does the tool do?
	Course Files tool enables you to: • Quickly copy large numbers of files into a VITAL module. • 'Drag and drop' files from your computer. • Link a file or folder of documents more than once within the module. • Once files are loaded to the Course Files area, you can open and edit them without having to re-load them back into VITAL. • Set different permission levels for content. For example, you could limit a folder or document so that it is only accessible to instructors and not GTA's added as course builders. • Zipped and packaged files, such as websites, that you want to display within a VITAL module are now added to Course Files. • Copy existing content from your module to your Course Files. Once files are in the Course Files area, you can download them back to your computer if necessary.
