After clicking activity, the next dialog box will be a settings form for the activity. Once the settings form has been filled out and saved, the activity will appear at the bottom of the section. You can move any activity around in the course with the move buttons while in course edit mode.
Follow the same procedure for adding resources.
After you select any resource type from the list for example: file. In the next dialog box will be a settings form as below.<br>
* Name : Type the name for your resources link, it will form the link learners click on to view the file so it is helpful to give it a name that suggests its purpose. <br>
* Description : Add a description of your file here if required.<br>
* Display description on the course page : If this box is ticked, the description will appear on the course page just below the name of the file. <br>
* Content section : click on "Add" and use the File picker to upload your file or drag and drop your file onto the arrow if you are using an appropriate browser. Here you can also create folder and add multiple resource files.<br>
