Open and import lesson materials

myViewBoard provides educators various ways to open or import files into their session. To open files, users can go to File Manager > Open  to browse files within their device's local drive.

With the Import Files feature within Magic Box, users can browse local and cloud drives to bring existing lesson materials into a lesson currently being worked on.

OLF AND FILE CONVERSION

WORKAROUND FOR GOOGLE FILES MAX IMPORT SIZE

When importing a Google Slide or Google Doc file, note if you encounter an import error when attempting to import the file, this may be due to a max file size conversion limit being exceeded (resulting conversion file size limit: 10MB).

To successfully import this content, we suggest you download the Google file as a PDF. Then, import the newly downloaded PDF file.


To learn more about expected behaviors when opening different file types, learn more in the Import Files page.
