<center><h3>File Storage in Education</h3></center>
<hr>
<p> A typical class will involve many course materials. ACES provides
custom portlets to display and upload these materials, namely, Assignments,
Handouts, and Lecture Notes. These portlets use the file storage module
to store files, and the calendar module to store date related information
for the files.
<p> The content shown will be different depending on the context. In a user
portal, Lecture Notes would display all of a user's lecture notes,
whereas in a group portal, Lecture Notes would just display Lecture Notes
for that class.
