Classroom is a web-based curriculum builder tool for creating questions and assignments using web documents. In Classroom, you can add images, links, PDFs, or other documents to any question or assignment you create using a tool called MoxieManager. 

MoxieManager is a file and media manager that allows you to upload, organize, and store files securely. Uploaded files are accessible only to you and can be reused year after year.

You can access MoxieManager by selecting one of two icons in any text editor menu bar in Classroom, Links, or Images

 

Insert/Edit Link

  1. Select the Insert/Edit Link icon in the top right. This will open a window with blank fields. 
    • Fill in the URL, Text to Display, and Title to create a hypertext link in your question or assignment.
    • Set the Target to New Window to open the link in a new browser tab, keeping the Classroom page intact.

Insert/Edit Image

  1. Select the Insert/Edit Image icon, which works similarly to the link feature. The picture manager defaults to a thumbnail view for easy selection. Maximum file size is 50 MB, and supported formats include .jpg, .jpeg, .png, and .gif.
  2. Click the image icon to the right of the source field to choose the image to insert into your question or assignment.
  3. Fill in an Image Description.
  4. Specify the size in pixels (1 inch = 72 pixels).
  5. Check the Constrain Proportions box to maintain the image’s aspect ratio.
  6. Click Ok.

Note: Different browsers may display documents and images inconsistently. If display issues arise, save your document as a PDF. Most browsers render PDFs consistently using Adobe Reader.
