Teachers now have the ability to save downloadable resources, such as PDFs and Word Docs, to Google Drive™ directly from their Open Learning course. You can then add the saved files to assignments with ease.

You are able to save the files to Google Drive without pairing your account with Google, however, we recommend doing so or you will need to sign into Google each time you go to add a file. For steps on pairing your account with Google, refer to the Pair/Unpair Your McGraw Hill Teacher Account with Your Google Account article.

The following file types are able to be saved: 

  • UserCourseResourceType.doc
  • UserCourseResourceType.docx
  • UserCourseResourceType.ppt
  • UserCourseResourceType.pptx
  • UserCourseResourceType.bok
  • UserCourseResourceType.csv
  • UserCourseResourceType.gsp
  • UserCourseResourceType.xls
  • UserCourseResourceType.xlsx
  • UserCourseResourceType.zip
  • UserCourseResourceType.pdf


1. Launch your Open Learning course.

2. Click on Course from the Navigation Menu.

3. Click on the Options menu of the resource.

4. Select Add to Google Drive from the menu.

5. On the pop-up, select the Google account you want to save the file to.

If you do not see the pop-up, your pop-up blocker may be stopping it. Read the pop-up blocker article based on the browser you are using:

6. Click the Continue button on the pop-up.

7. Checkmark the options that you want to provide McGraw Hill access to.

Note: You will need to check all three options or it will result in an error message.

8. Click the Continue button at the bottom.

You will then get a message that the file was successfully uploaded to Google Drive.
