When you are exploring Espresso there will be resources that you will want to save for future use.  This is easy to do by using Add to My Favourites or Save to my Content.

Favourites

Saving resources to your Favourites provides quick access to resources for next-day teaching or for lesson planning. 

Your Favourites are accessible by clicking on the heart icon in the top-right corner of any page.

This will then open a side panel displaying all the resources you have added to your Favourites.

My Favourites is helpful for curating resources as you sort search through resources to compare or review later.

Resources added to my Favourites will remain until they are removed, even if you log out of Discovery Education.

To add a resources to your Favourites, simply click on the heart icon in the title bar of the resource's card.

To remove the resource from your Favourites, either click on the heart icon once more in the title bar of the resource's card, or whilst in the Favourites area.

Students also have their own Favourites which works in the same way.

Add to My Content

Teachers and students have My Content areas where resources can be collected, organised, shared and retrieved.  My Content is accessed from the Global Nav menu on the left-hand side of the screen.

My content works just like the folder structure on your computer. You can create sub-folders to create hierarchies within content, year groups, topics or courses.

You can also choose to share resources with your school.  Resources saved in the School Content area will be visible for all teachers within the school.

Within My Content or School Content, you can filter the resource type using the View By drop-down menu

New folders can be created by clicking on Add Folder:

You can also use the Actions menu to manage the resources within the folder, to share or assign them with students or teachers:

To save resources to My Content, simply select the option from the action menu on the resource card, or from the main menu when the resource is opened.

You will then choose where to save the resource to.
