Hello!

I have a question/request. Is there any way to add a pdf or other document to a SMART Learning Suite lesson that has already been created?

My teachers are loving what they can do with their static materials. Turning their documents into interactive experiences has the teachers and the students excited! However, I have had several instances where teachers wanted to go back and add an additional document/pdf after they had already spent a significant amount of time compiling numerous resources and activities into a lesson. This is likely to happen with all teachers because the instructional process should be fluid. Teachers may find new content that they want to add or they may realize, based on student responses, that additional documents need to be added to provide a more targeted or customized lesson. This situation may also occur when teachers update lessons from year to year. How we teach our students is (and should be) ever-evolving. If a teacher wants to add one or two new documents to a lesson, they should be able to do that without remaking every activity they have already worked hard to create. I do realize that they can create a separate lesson that contains those materials, but it would be disconnected from the compiled content already created. This is not the best service to teachers. Is there any way for this change to be made?

If you need more information or clarification, please don't hesitate to contact me!

Thanks!
