You can upload almost any file type to your personal library: PDF, videos, audio files, images, Google Docs, etc.
While we offer an advanced screen sharing option, we highly recommend uploading your own content and learning materials to your Lesson Library inside your LearnCube classroom.
How to load your own learning materials with a few easy steps:
1. Open the virtual classroom or whiteboard
2. Click on the green Lesson Materials button
3. Click on the blue Upload Lesson Materials button
4. Edit the file name and information if you'd like.
5. You can drag and drop the file you'd like to upload or click Choose File.
Our supported file formats are as follows:
Images: png, gif, jpg, jpeg
Audio: wav, mp3
Video: mp4, m4p, m4v, webm, ogg
Microsoft Office Files: doc, docx, docm, dotx, rtf, xls, xlsx, xlsm, pot, potm, potx, pps, ppsm, pptx, ppt, pptm
PDF: pdf
Upload files once, and these will be automatically saved in the library for ongoing future use.
A couple of PRO tips:
Compress large files before uploading.
Upload videos to YouTube and link to those vs uploading large video files (note you can even keep them private or unlisted if you'd prefer not to make them public).
Use our language content if you don't have your own.
A couple of quick notes:
Large files or incompatible file types may cause an error.
Word, PowerPoints and website links will automatically convert to PDF to avoid formatting/compatibility issues with student devices and enable you/students to be able to annotate on the page. We recommend uploading pdf files directly when possible.
If you're using our Online School platform, you can delete files you have added to your own classes but not those shared by your school through the main content library.
If you prefer to use shortcuts, you can also upload images to the whiteboard using copy and paste for a quick add.
