Downloadable files in course

In some situations, you might need to provide additional files (which may be non viewable in the course player) in your self paced courses which the learners can download.  Here is how you can do this in EduBrite.

Step1: Define additional file types in site customization (this is not needed for standard file types supported by EduBrite - all office file types, PDF, all images)

Step2: Create lesson of any kind (online edited content or uploaded file kind content), and go to the files tab. There you can upload additional attachments for this lesson, which can include any file types (including custom types you have defined). You can even add protected PDF files which may be otherwise non viewable in the course player because they wouldn't be allowed to get converted to SWF on the server.

Step3: Preview the lesson in course player, you will notice a small caption telling there are additional downloadable files in this lesson. You can write this in the lesson content also, to make it easier for the learner to take a note of additional files available on this lesson

Step4: Click on the attachment icon in the toolbar, and then click on particular attachment to download it
