A resource is an item that teaching staff can use to assist in teaching, such as a file or a link. In other words, a resource is an item that contains information to be downloaded, viewed or used in some way that provides some output for the course. On the other hand, an activity is an element in which students participate.

How to add resources in the Virtual Classroom?

To add any activity or resource to the Virtual Classroom, follow these steps.

First of all, we will access our Virtual Classroom and select a course in which we have editing permissions.

Once we have accessed the course, we will notice that, on the top right hand side of the screen, there is an option called "Turn editing on". When we click on this option, we will be able to start editing the course parameters.

Once the editing mode is activated, the option "Add an activity or resource" will appear on the screen and we will click on it. 

A window will then pop up with all the activities and resources offered by the Virtual Classroom and we will select the activity or resource we want.
