"Units" , in Brightspace, function as a folder might on your computer. Units are a tool for organizing and containing course content such as course pages (called "HTML files" or just Files, in Brightspace), weekly lessons, readings, discussion forums, assessments, external resources (eg: website links) and much more. In this section, we will focus on how to create Units on your course site, and look at different ways that Units may be used to support your instruction.
