When uploading audio files in the file block, you can get a player to play the audio in the course (note! Currently only supported for MP3 files). The player includes the option for learners to use different playback speeds, whilst they are reading and interacting with the card. Have a look below! ​

Supplementary Lecture Notes: Instructors can upload PDFs of lecture notes or PowerPoint slides that complement the video lectures in a course. This allows students to review the material at their own pace and use the notes as a reference during assessments or while completing assignments.

Interactive Workbooks: For courses that involve practical exercises, instructors can upload DOCX or PDF workbooks. These documents can include exercises, worksheets, or interactive activities that students need to complete as part of the course. This helps in reinforcing the learning material and provides hands-on experience.

Audio Recordings: In courses across various disciplines, instructors can upload audio files featuring podcasts, guest lectures, or expert panel discussions. The integrated audio player with variable playback speeds enhances the learning experience by allowing students to engage with the content at a pace that suits their learning style, deepening their understanding of complex topics.
