\textbf{Edit course contents}
on the Main Menu. 
Main Menu to display the \textbf{Course Editor} screen.

There are several ways you can add a new document to the course:

\begin{itemize}

\item Import a \textbf{Published Resource} from the LON-CAPA network (see section \ref{Docs_Importing_LON-CAPA_Resource})
\item Import a document from outside LON-CAPA, for instance by adding an external resource (see section \ref{Docs_Adding_External_Resource}) or 
by uploading a document from your hard drive such as a PowerPoint presentation or a
PDF file (see section \ref{Docs_Uploading_From_Harddrive})

\item Create a \textbf{Special Document} from a prepared template (see section \ref{Docs_Creating_From_Template})
\end{itemize}

You can also organize documents into folders for structure
(see section \ref{Docs_Adding_Folders}), or add a \textbf{Table of Contents} resource,\index{table of contents}
which creates a resource in the course that displays the \textbf{Table of Contents}. 
Because the first resource opens for students when they login, using a Table of Contents as 
the first resource may be a good idea.

To change the order of the resources, click on the blue up or down arrows next to 
the resource you wish to move. Repeat this until you have all the resources in the 
order you want them. Other options include: \underbar{Remove} or \underbar{Rename}.
