Keep in mind: Units, Lessons, and Folders cannot be changed into each other once created. This means that if you decide a lesson would be better off as a unit, a new unit must be created, and then move all the content over before deleting the lesson. |
Moving Content Items
Content items can also be moved by selecting the item, clicking the Editor tool on the top right-hand side of the screen, and then choosing Move to.
Organization Tips
In the Content tool use Units to keep related course resources, activities, and content together in one place. For instance you can create a Unit called “Site Resources” and upload all course readings to that folder. Likewise you can name a folder “Unit 1: Poetry” and compile all relevant activities, tasks and assessments to the folder (see picture below).
The most common practice in organizing Course Content is to organize content Units, by Topic unit or by Term week (i.e. Week 7). You may also want to consider creating lessons (sub-folders) within the units to further organize course content into applicable themes or tasks. I.e. create a lesson titled “To do” and compile tasks and resources in this space for easy access.
Here are some examples of how content units might be organized:
