<p>Note that the weekly and topics formats are very similar in structure. The
main difference is that each box in the weekly format covers exactly one week,
or delete them.</p>
<p>All of this is achieved through the <strong>Files</strong> link in your Administration
menu. The Files section looks like this:</p>

<p>This interface is only available to teachers - it is not accessible by students.
Individual files are made available to students later on (as "Resources"
date they upload their file is recorded. Afterwards, you will have a single
page on which you can view each file (and how late or early it is), and then
record a grade and a comment. Half an hour after you grade any particular

one you can specify an open-ended question that guides what students write,

choice, true-false, and short answer questions. These questions are kept
in a categorised database, and can be re-used within courses and even between
