Content Layout Options

By Alexandra Bezverkha | 06-12-2017

When you create a content page, there are several layout options to manage multi-column content, add images, video, audio, and documents.

There are 5 tabs (Text, Images, Media, Classic and Interactive) with different content blocks for aligning texts, images, video, audio and documents on the page.

To choose one of the content blocks, click to add content and drag and drop one of the blocks you need.

Adding Hotspot on Image

By Alexandra Bezverkha | 06-12-2017

Interactive layout allows you to add hotspots on an image. First, you’ll have to choose a background image, then you need to click on this image and drag the selection to create a hotspot. Insert some text that will be displayed to your learners when they hover over the hotspot.


Gradebook

By Alexandra Bezverkha | 21-11-2017

The Gradebook helps instructors easily view and check learners’ results. Now all the grades for each learner in a course can be found in the course gradebook on the Results step.

​​

By default, the gradebook shows a learner’s name, email, result, score, the date and time the course has been started and finished. You can change the default view in the More details tab where you can sort out the fields you want to be displayed in the gradebook. Thus, you can also view learners’ progress on sections and questions by checking the corresponding boxes in the More details tab.

​​

You may have items in your gradebook that you no longer need. Find a grade item you wish to delete, then hover over the left side of this item and click the Delete button.

​​

You can export scores from the gradebook and download them to your computer as a CSV file. At the time of export, the CSV file data matches the current filters and settings shown in the gradebook.

​​

NOTE: The gradebook is still under development. We are going to release a few more gradebook features until the end of the year.


Replay Button in the Scenario Question

By Olga Kuzmenko | 07-09-2017

The Replay button reloads the simulation and allows learners to complete it again. However, in the exam mode you might need to limit the number of attempts.

If you use the scenario question in the Assessment template you might want to limit the number of attempts and hide the Replay button.

In the scenario editor, go to Settings and make sure the option to show the replay button is unchecked.

HTML Content Block

By Olga Kuzmenko | 07-09-2017

There may be times when you want to use HTML while creating a course. For example, you may prefer to code a hyperlink by hand or adjust the header sizes. To make coding easy we’ve added a new HTML content block.

To add HTML code right to a content page, do the following: create a new content page, go to the Interactive tab and choose HTML block.

Save your time by copying a whole section from one course to another.

To reuse a section in another course, first, you need to switch to the old editor.

Now open the course that you want to duplicate a section into, and select one or some of the existing sections.
