Content can be displayed in a number of ways in Moodle. You can either upload files (refer to Links, files and folders), or you can add content directly to Moodle. There are a number of options for doing this and the options you choose will depend on the length and complexity of your content, and whether you want students to interact with it (e.g. answer questions or reflect on the content within Moodle as they progress).

- easy for you and your colleagues to update. You don't need to download a file, edit it, then upload it again.
- you can embed videos, audio, images and other media, like Twitter feeds so students can view this directly from the browser.
- accessible to those using assistive technologies for disabilities, and others who use these tools to study in flexible ways. (e.g. there are apps that read aloud content directly from a web browser and this often works better than reading PDFs, which have repeating headings and footer text that can get in the way).

Evaluate your content and decide the best option for displaying the content, as either a file/folder, text and media area, page, book or lesson. See 'What is it?' above.
