[edit] How do I upload an image or document and place it in a post or page?

You can easily use a post or page in your blog to upload images or documents, such as a course calendar or syllabus. Doing this is relatively straightforward. Go to Write-->Post (or Page) and include any information about the image or document in the text editor. For example, if you were a professor and wanted to copy the text of your syllabus into a page you can do that using the steps here, and then upload the downloadable version of the document to the text editor and provide a link so that students can have a "hard copy" for themselves. The same process holds true for uploading images from your hard drive as well.

To do this, simply go to the section of the write post (or page) that is directly beneath the text editor. Their you will see a tab that says upload and a text field with a browse button next to it. Click on the browse button, find your document, title it, describe it if you like, and then click on the upload button on the lower-right side of the upload section.
