What are the pros and cons of making course content available to be downloaded and viewed offline by students?

Hi, I am toying with the idea of asking my school administration their thoughts on making course content available to be downloaded and viewed offline by students.  Who else has done this?  If so, what have your experiences been? Thanks.

Hi rpsimon‌, did your school ever enable this feature to allow students to download course content? We are also considering this and just wondering if you, or anyone else, have any thoughts around this.

thanks,

Lorne

I went ahead and enabled it.  I don't if anyone has actually used the feature though.
