This page allows you to create a new resource at the current location, . Available resources for this location are:

• Suite of Rooms
  This is a container for plain rooms, communication rooms or more suites of rooms. You can think of it as an entrance lobby to a set of resources that are subdivided into rooms.
• Plain Room
  This is a container for documents, interactive or static. You can place pages of text, multiple choice papers, questionnaires, pigeon holes, short answer paper etc. in a plain room. You can also customise the introductory text of a plain room to make it into a menu of links to external web resources. This is known as a reading room.
• Group Communication Room
  This is a room where a group of people can communicate asynchronously by posting messages. Messages are threaded and it is possible to monitor activity.
• Heading
  This is not really a resource - it is simply a heading that will appear in the list of resources. You can use it to group resources under a title and description.

The following list of resources are documents and would be better placed in a plain room but it is possible to place them in this suite of rooms also.

• Logbook
  A log book has a page private to each student consisting of sections and questions. The student can make entries in the sections of the logbook. Tutors and mentors can browse through the students' pages and make entries as well. Together the students and tutors decide which entries will form the final logbook record and after this the record can be printed or saved to disk.
• Link to External Web Site
  This is a page within the building that links to a web address outside of the building.
• Structured Document
  This is structured document with an automatically generated contents page. Text is typed (or pasted) directly into a form on the web page and you can use plain text or HTML formatted text. The structure of the document is limited but authoring is very easy.
• Web Document
  This will create an initially empty web document into which you can subsequently upload HTML pages, graphics and other media. You must have web authoring tools on your own computer or a plain text editor and a knowledge of HTML tags.
• Multiple Choice Question Paper
  This interactive document will present the user with a set of multiple choice questions. The student makes selections and is given a mark. Detailed feedback is available to the student and statistical analysis is available to the teacher.
