Good day Colleagues,<\/h5>\n
Welcome back to our Tuesday Teaching Tips (TTT) Blog.<\/h5>\n
By now, many of us have commenced our courses, and in some cases, this has not been without a few bumps in the road. But the CETL is here to help you along the way by preparing you for what’s to come, and to guide you through it for the most impactful results. In last week’s installment of TTT, we provided you with guidelines in accessing your myeLearning course (see previous post). This week, we want to take things a step further, from accessing to using myeLearning. We are happy to provide you with tips in uploading resources (content) to your course site. But before we explore the avenues for uploading content, let’s understand what myeLearning\u00a0 and myeLearning resources are all about.<\/span><\/h5>\n
A- What are myeLearning Resources?<\/strong><\/h5>\n
One of the main platforms for course delivery at the UWISTA is myeLearning. This Learning Management System (LMS) allows you to provide course content\/materials for your learners. Course materials can range from reading materials, videos, and webpages, to diagrams\/illustrations, presentations, case studies and weblinks. In myeLearning, materials are called resources<\/u>, and can be in a variety of formats such as Microsoft Excel, Word or PowerPoint presentation documents, PDFs, audio files (mp3s), video files (mp4s), and images (PNGs, JPEGs). Adding resources to your myeLearning course site allows students to access, review and prepare for upcoming class sessions, activities and assessments, and\/or review content.<\/span><\/h5>\n
B – How Do I Add Resources to my Course in myeLearning?<\/strong><\/h5>\n
Adding resources to your course is extremely easy, intuitive and can be done in six (6) steps. These steps can even be shortened to 2-3 steps for a bulk uploading of files. If you are using the regular approach, the following steps will guide you in adding resources to your myeLearning course:<\/span><\/h5>\n
    \n
  1. \n
    From your course homepage, click\u00a0Turn Editing On<\/strong>. This is located at the top\u00a0of the right side of your course homepage<\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n
    Scroll to the first block in your course homepage and click\u00a0Add an Activity or Resource<\/strong><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
  3. \n
    A pop-up window will appear, with a list of myeLearning resources and activities. Click on File (NOTE: if it is a hyperlink\/web-link, then click on\u00a0URL<\/strong>. If it is a folder, then click on\u00a0Folder<\/strong>)<\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
  4. \n
    A new page will appear. In the title\/name field, type the name you would like to give the file, URL or folder. NOTE: This should be a title that is easily identifiable by students.<\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
  5. \n
    Scroll to the new box with the blue arrow within, and add your files\/documents. This can be done by clicking on the blue arrow OR by dragging your files from the external folder to the blue arrow (NOTE: if it is a URL, you can copy and paste the link in the appropriate space)<\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
  6. \n
    Scroll to end of the page and click Save and Return to Course<\/strong>. The resource(s) you just created will appear on your course homepage. You and your students can click on the file\/folder\/URL to open and access the information.<\/h5>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
    To upload a number of files at the same time, you can simply:<\/strong><\/h5>\n
      \n
    1. \n
      Go to your course homepage and Turn Editing On<\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
    2. \n
      Drag and drop the files from your folder\/device onto the course homepage.<\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
    3. \n
      Once on the course homepage, you can drag the files in the order you would like.<\/h5>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      Kindly note, myelearning has undergone an upgrade that has led to some small changes in the appearance\/layout and navigation of the site. An orientation to these changes can be accessed via the following resources:<\/span><\/h5>\n
        \n
      1. \n
        What Has Changed in the Upgraded Version of myelearning<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
      2. \n
        myelearning Upgrade \u2013 New Essential Features for Teaching and Learning<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n
      3. \n
        myelearning Upgrade \u2013 New Advanced Features for Teaching and Learning<\/a><\/h5>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        For a more thorough orientation to adding content to your course in myeLearning, please feel free to view the webinar recording\u00a0An Orientation to myeLearning\u00a0<\/a>and\/or view the following recourses with step-by-step instructions and illustrations for your convenience:<\/span><\/h5>\n
        If you would like to copy your course content from a previous course shell, you may also find the following additional resources useful:<\/span><\/h5>\n
        User-Guide:<\/strong>\u00a0Adding a File Resource to your myelearning Course<\/a><\/h5>\n
        User-Guide:\u00a0<\/strong>Linking to a Website (Adding a URL)<\/a><\/h5>\n
        Video Tutorial:<\/strong>\u00a0Adding a File Resource to your myelearning Course<\/a><\/h5>\n
        If you would like to copy course content from a previous course shell, you may also find the following additional resource useful:<\/span><\/h5>\n
        User-Guide:<\/strong>\u00a0Importing Course Content into a New Course Shell\u00a0<\/a><\/h5>\n
