Hi, I would like to make some specific files available by section.  I cannot see how to do this - they are not assignments, they are more like readings.   One idea I had was to put in a discussion or announcement for that section only but it feels a bit of a hack.  Is there a cleaner way of doing this?  Thanks

@Chris_Hofer  Using Groups is certainly a "work around," but I think my online students would be confused by this. They would have to go into their Groups and locate "Files" in their Group Navigation Bar. My guess is that less than 50% would be successful.

I think the better "work around" is to create an ungraded Assignment for that section and embed the File into it. Put these Assignments inside your course Modules. Only the section designated for that Assignment will actually see it.
