Learning Authors and Administrators

Create a Learning Module

The following article describes how Learning Authors and Administrators can create a Learning module.

 

Create new learning

To create a new learning module navigate the left menu. Then under ‘Learning’  click ‘create’ .

 

 

PERMISSIONS

 

It will open to a page with your profile photo in the left hand corner.

This page gives an overview of your course. You can set all the parameters for cost, grading and give a description of the course with links to further reading or videos to watch. You can always come back and change anything ie if you haven't worked out the price or how you are going to grade the course.

 

 

Title 

Enter the title and add a description here then hit save.

 

Description

The buttons in the editing bar give you options to change the text  much like  a word document.  you can add in a document, pictures or video by clicking the various icons and following the instructions for uploading.

 

 


 

Adding a video

Click on the movie icon and it will take you to a box to paste your URL into. The video can then be watched staying on the page. You can do the same with pictures or documents.

 

 


 

Setting up parameters of your course

 

 

Learnmore link

Add links to web sites or You Tube here

 


 

Sharing

 

 

The buttons are always in the default ‘on’ position when you open this page. 

You have the option of turning them off, if these platforms are not set up. 

The activated social media icons will show up on the last activity page.


 

Location

Start typing an address in the address finder and a list of addresses will be created to pick from.

 

 

Price & Tax

This is where you will set the GST or VAT tax amount is inserted.

Some education courses, course materials are GST exempt. 

Check with the ATO or your accountant for GST

https://www.ato.gov.au/Business/GST/How-GST-works/

Click the link below for VAT

https://www.taxpolicycenter.org/briefing-book/what-vat

 

 


 

Grading Method

This is where you set the grading method and pass rate. Click the drop down box to reveal the pass grade options

 


 

Pass grade

The method is either the sum of all grades or just completing the work. 

If you set the Pass grade at 80% for instance and the cumulative grades fall below 80% then that would be recorded as a fail. 

A pass grade is recorded for any score over 80%.

 

 

Think about what is an acceptable pass grade for your course. 

There are many factors to consider such as the industry, or industry standards or complexity of the course. 

 

Depending on the course you may want a 100% pass rate so consider the importance of the course and what is deemed satisfactory knowledge to pass.

For instance I am a diabetes educator and when I did the training for commening people on insulin pumps, the pass grade was 100%. 

I had to thoroughly  know what I was doing because missing a step could be potentially life threatening.

 

   

 

Show total learners

If enabled, it will hide the number of users in the Arlo event. This is only an option if you have Arlo synchronization for this course.

You may have a similar course with the same structure and it saves a lot of time. You may want to offer a shorter version of the course. You may be offering the same course to a different demographic with where language may need to be simplified for instance. So a very useful tool.

To add an administrator to the course Type ‘@’ and their name and their profile icon will pop up. Click the icon and then click add. The administrator would need a user profile to add them in.

The benefit of making someone an administrator is so

I have a channel called ‘Starting someone on insulin’. It is a webinar and a live course being advertised through eventbrite. If I wanted students in one of my diabetes courses to participate in this webinar then I would add this to the course.  Channels is discussed  in more depth under ‘channels’ further in this document. 

 

 

 

Prerequisite

Often there is no prerequisite to begin a course but you may need to complete and pass a module to continue on to the next module. Ie Module 1 could be a prerequisite for module 2 unless the modules are stand alone and can be completed in any order.

Interactive content with HTML Embed

Advanced posting editor provides a powerful way of engaging with your members with interactive content. Ideally, any web element that can be embedded using HTML code can be shared with your members, as long as the content is public and visible to the public. 

 

The way HTML content is rendered on Web and Mobile is different, hence it is recommended to test your content on web and mobile app, before you start implementing them on your active channel.

 

You can use tools such as https://codebeautify.org/htmlviewer to test your HTML content. It is recommended that you have some experience with HTML and CSS, as it is beyond the scope of this document to talk about details of HTML and CSS. 

 

  1. When posting, click on the Advanced buttonfor more options.

 

 

  1. The Post editor will pop up. Now click on </> button on the toolbar.

← HTML Editor View

 

  1. Now paste your embed code or iframe code in it. The best way to find the embed code is to check the sharing option of your interactive element which you want to publish. Almost every interactive app such as surveys, quiz and games have an embeddable code available. You can also embed a website link as an iFrame, although it will not work if the website has disallowed iFrame. 

 

Here is an example of a iFrame code:

 

<iframe src="https://www.w3schools.com" title="W3Schools Free Online Web Tutorials"></iframe>

 

You can replace the link with any other website link to embed as iFrame.

 

 

In this example, we are using embed code from an app called TypeForm. Typeform allows you to create interactive forms. 

 

 

Grab the code and paste on to the editor.

Sharing Vimeo and YouTube Videos

 

In addition to directly sharing Vimeo and Youtube videos, you can also use Advanced mode. 

 

Advanced posting allows you to embed Vimeo, YouTube and other video platforms. However, to ensure that the video is properly rendered on web browser and mobile, please take a note of the following:

 

  1. Ensure that the video is embeddable on any websites and doesn’t have any restrictions.

  2. Ensure that the video is visible to any one with the link to the video. If you don’t want to make the video visible on your respective platform, you can choose to unlist them. 


 

Here are the privacy settings of Vimeo.

  1. You can either choose Unlisted or Public.

  2. Embed option should be ANYWHERE
