Student Help

This error warning occurs when you are trying to upload a file to Moodle that is larger then the limit set by your teacher. E.g. Trying to upload some text as an assignment or contribute something to a forum or other interactive activity. The file limit is displayed before you start to upload the file and is highlighted in the image below. Limits can be set anything between 10Kb and 250Mb. If your file exceeds the limit you should consider if it could be reduced as it will take a long time to submit. Your file will not upload until it is under the set limit.
