File and Folder are used when you want to upload a document or file to your course, making it easy for the student to download and save it. PowerPoint files and assignment rubrics in PDF or DOCX format are two types of files that are commonly shared with students, but most file types can be uploaded to your course. If you have multiple files to upload use a Folder to display the files as a group.
Users who download the file will only be able to open it if they have the appropriate software on their computers, so it's good to stick with common formats such as DOCX, XLSX, PPTX, or PDF.
