Creating and Modifying A Folder

Understanding Folders

Just like you add content to a folder on your computer, you also add content to folders on the Horizon Wimba OpenCampus server. There are two folders already set up for every new class:

Room's Contents and Folders

  • The default folder is named after your Room ID. This folder will always be loaded first when you Enter a Room or start a class session.
  • The second folder is named “Snapshots.” Use this folder to store the contents of your eBoard activities that are saved during a live session.

Both folders are initially empty and cannot be erased, although any content you add can be erased. You can also add new folders.

To Create a New Folder

1. On the Room Management page, find the room that you want to modify and click the room name.

2. On the Rooms tab, click Content. The Room's Content page opens.

3. Click the New Folder icon to the right of the folder list.

The Create a New Folder page opens:

Create a New Folder page

Type a name for your carousel, using only alphanumeric characters. This name will later appear in the Room's Folder drop-down menu in the Presenter’s Console during a live class.

5. Click Create. The new folder is created and you are returned to the Room's Content page.
