My Files
 		Previous Topic  Next Topic 

My files have now been replaced by better tools, called ePortfolios. ePorfolios not only contain a My Files type tool called My Resources (with lots more functionality), they also contain an editable Homepage for the user. However, My Files will remain on the cLc for a short while to give users a chance to finish any tasks associated with them, and to move any files stored in My Files, to my Resources. How do I move files from My files to My Resources?


Each students My Files folder can be found in their My Panel, by clicking on the My Files link.


In order for a user to use My Files, they must have been allocated work space.


My files provides you with a number of tools that allow you to set up folders to create and store your own work.  It also allows users to attach these resources to any set Tasks.
