Materials

Materials are the resources you share with students. You attach them to a course (available throughout the course) or to a specific lecture (tied to that session).

Types of material

  • Link — a URL to an external resource.
  • File — a document you upload (e.g. PDF).
  • Video — a video resource.
  • Image — an image.
  • Audio — an audio file (useful for pronunciation, recitation models, music).
  • Text — a written note shown inline.

Each material has a title and optional notes; non-text types point to a URL or an uploaded file.

Adding a material

  1. Open the course (or a specific lecture) page.
  2. Add a material and choose its type.
  3. For file/image/audio/video, upload the file — it's stored securely and served to students via a time-limited link.
  4. For a link, paste the URL. For text, write the content.
  5. Save.

A material belongs to either a course or a lecture — not both. Choose course-level for general resources and lecture-level for session-specific ones.

Where students find them

Materials appear on the course/lecture page for enrolled students and in the shared Library. Parents of enrolled students can see relevant materials too.

Tips

  • Keep titles descriptive so they're easy to find later in the Library.
  • Attach lecture-specific materials (e.g. today's slides) to the lecture; put reusable references on the course.
  • Mind file sizes and use allowed types; large media uploads take longer.
