Text headers help visually organize information in modules in the absence of folders.

You can add Text Headers to organize your module.

  1. Select the “+” icon in the top right of a module, then choose “Text Headers” from the dropdown menu.
  2. Type what you’d like the header to say in the Header field, and choose if you’d like to visually indent the header a certain amount of levels.
  3. Select the blue “Add Item” button.
A dialog box titled 'Add Item to Module 1: Topic' showing options to add a text header. The interface includes a dropdown menu for selecting content type set to 'Text Header', a text field labeled 'Header' with 'Monday's Assignments' entered, and an 'Indentation' dropdown set to 'Don't Indent'. The dialog has 'Cancel' and 'Add Item' buttons at the bottom.
