Creating a File

This tutorial shows how to create a File (i.e. a Web Document)

This short tutorial shows how to create a new document page directly in DTU Learn. Such a page is actually a webpage and the term for it in the menu is a "file". The page can contain text, pictures, videos, links and much more in one single file. Since the file thus created is a regular webpage in a DTU Learn context, it is very flexible compared to a Word- or pdf document offering many options for integrating seamlessly with the rest of the module content in your course. For more information on using the built-in webpage editor (known as the "HTML editor"), see this overview.

Follow these steps:

  1. Go to the content of your course.
  2. Select the unit and/or lesson you are working on.
  3. Click 'Create New'.
  4. Select 'HTML Document'.
  5. This brings you to the HTML editor. Give your file a name and click on the symbol marked below to edit the HTML code. When you are done editing, click on 'Save and Close'.
  6. Your new webpage is now visible in your course content.
