How do I add Box content to my Ultra course?

Faculty can quickly add Box content to their Ultra courses in these areas:

Course Outline
Document, test, and assignment creation pages
Discussions, messages, and conversations

Students can access cloud storage for their assignments, tests, discussions, messages, and conversations.

Getting Started

On a new document page or after you select the plus sign to add more content, select Upload from Cloud Storage.

You can also access cloud storage from the Insert Content menu in the editor.
In the cloud storage pop-up window, select a web app from the menu and select a file name.
- Or, select a folder title to view the contents and select a file.
- You can select a ZIP file—a compressed package of files. ZIP files stay compressed when you add them. Students select the ZIP file to download it to their computers and unzip it to access the contents.
Click Select to add the file to the page.

TIP: After adding the file, you can then edit its settings for accessibility. Select a file in the editor and then select the Edit Attachment icon in the row of editor functions. Add a Display name and Alternative text to describe the image for people who use screen readers or visit web pages with images turned off.

You can also choose whether to insert the file as a link in the editor or to embed the file directly so it appears inline with other content you've added.

When you add a file from cloud storage, the system makes a copy of the file in your course. The files aren't linked. Any change you make to a file within your course doesn't apply to the file in cloud storage.
