The rest of the submission process is identical to how you submitted the assignment originally. See the Submitting an Assignment heading above for a step-by-step walkthrough.

There may be times when you need to upload a media file such as an audio recording or a video. Because of the size of these files however, they’ll most likely exceed Halo’s file size limit of 40 MB. In cases like these, we have 2 suggestions for submitting these files. The first suggestion is compressing your file, so it doesn’t exceed the 40 MB limit. For more information on compressing files, please see our article Compressing your File(s) to Upload to Halo | Learn.

In some cases, such as with video files, even after compression your file may still be above the 40 MB limit. In situations like this, we recommend using OneDrive to get a shareable link to submit instead.

1. To submit a shareable link to Halo, you must first have your video or media file downloaded onto your device. Steps for downloading your video or media can vary depending on what software you used to record your media. Technical Support doesn’t assist with recording your media nor downloading it. For resources on these two steps, we recommend checking the Course Material Support section of the Student Success Center.
2. Once your media is recorded and downloaded, you’ll need to upload the file to OneDrive. GCU Students get a GCU OneDrive with their student email. For assistance with uploading your file to OneDrive, see Microsoft Online Programs in the GCU Portal.
   
   Note: If your file is already saved to OneDrive, skip to step 3.
3. After your file has been uploaded to OneDrive, you can get a shareable link to submit to your Halo | Learn classroom. For step by step instructions on how to get your shareable link, see the Using OneDrive to Share Files section of our Compressing your File(s) to Upload to Halo | Learn article.
4. After you’ve copied your link, you’ll want to open a new Word document to paste your link into. On a new Blank Word Document, paste your link with CTRL+V, or CMD+V if you’re on a Mac, and save your document. Be sure to save to This PC if you’re on a Windows or On My Mac if you’re on a Mac. For more details on Copying and Pasting, see our article Using Copy and Paste.
5. After saving your file, your link is ready to submit to Halo | Learn! From here, follow the steps in the Submitting an Assignment accordion above to submit your Word Document to Halo | Learn.
   
   Note: LopesWrite requires a minimum of 20 words to generate a report. If your document contains your link and nothing more, LopesWrite will be unable to generate a report.
