# Adding resources

## Learn how to attach additional files and links to your assessment instructions

While editing your Cadmus assessment, you’ll find the *Resources* section just below the *Instructions* section. Use this space to connect students with any extra information to help them complete the assessment. 

In the *Resources* section, you can:

- [Add a file as a resource](https://support.cadmus.io/teachers/adding-resources#add-file-as-resource)
- [Add a website link as a resource](https://support.cadmus.io/teachers/adding-resources#add-website-link-as-resource)
- [Edit, remove or reorder resources](https://support.cadmus.io/teachers/adding-resources#edit-remove-reorder-resources)

 

**TIP**! We recommend having all the assessment resources only available in Cadmus. This simplifies the assessment experience for students and encourages them to work in Cadmus.

### Add a file as a resource

We recommend adding things like marking rubrics, tip sheets and relevant readings as resources for your students. You might have these saved on your computer as a .pdf or another file type.

**To add a file on your computer as a resource**

1. In the *Resources* section, click **Attach from computer**.
2. Select the file you’d like to upload.
3. Click **Open.**
4. You can choose to add a note to students on how the resource should be used, and click **Add**. Otherwise, click **No instructions**.

**NOTE**: You can only upload one file at a time.

 

### Add a website link as a resource

You can provide students with links to relevant online resources like library databases, articles and helpful videos.

**To add a website link as a resource**

1. In the *Resources* section, click **Link to a website**.
2. Next to *Name*, type a name for the resource.
3. Next to *Address*, paste in the link to the website.
4. Click the ![cadmus.zendesk.comhcarticle\_attachments360002180316save-icon-1](https://support.cadmus.io/hs-fs/hubfs/%5BHelp%20Docs%5D%20Student%20Images/cadmus.zendesk.comhcarticle_attachments360002180316save-icon-1.png?width=16&name=cadmus.zendesk.comhcarticle_attachments360002180316save-icon-1.png) save icon.

 

### Edit, remove or reorder resources

Once you’ve added resources to an assignment, you can always edit their names or remove them completely. You can also reorder the resources in the list by dragging them into your preferred order.
