- Select Upload Media in the upper-right corner.
- Add files from your computer by either:
- Clicking the light gray upload area to open your file browser, or
- Dragging and dropping one or more files into the upload area.
- (Optional) If you've already created a Collection, select it before uploading. Collections are organized groupings of media that can be shared with other faculty or staff for collaboration or shared ownership. We strongly recommend creating a Collection for each course.
