Turn a PDF or scanned page into an interactive resource
Choose Edit a PDF in the composer on your home page, drop in the file, say what to add, and click Build. TeachShare rebuilds it as a resource you can edit, with its questions and answer key ready to change, and your original file stays as it was.
It works on a scanned or photocopied page too, such as the vocabulary sheet you’ve handed out for years. The box takes a PDF or images. Once it’s a resource, students can complete it on their devices.
- On your home page, choose Edit a PDF at the top of the composer.
- Drop the file in the box that reads Drop a resource, test, or PDF here, or click the box to browse for it.
- In the box under it, say what to add, such as “Add sentence frames and a word bank to each response area.” To start from your usual supports, pick a Preset.
- Click Build.
- Edit the resource that comes back, or ask Chat to change it.
- Assign it to your class, and students complete it on screen.
Good to know
Edit a PDF adapts material you already teach. To make a new resource with a PDF as source material, choose Create, click Attach, and choose Upload File instead. See Create a resource from a description.
On Premium, you can edit your own PDFs without a limit. See TeachShare plans and the weekly limit.
