Module Management

Classes may have one or more modules. Modules provide organizational benefits, akin to chapters in a book. The order of modules can be customized by the Educator in order to guide trainees through their contents and modules may have availability dates, allowing Educators to gate their content. See Data model - Modules for more information.

Modules that are not accessible due to their availability dates will be grayed out for trainees.

When the module availability dates are not defined (the default case), the module is available to students enrolled in the class as long as the class is available.

List of Modules

The modules for a class are listed on the Modules tab of a class page and visible to trainees in the order displayed, despite their availability dates.

When either the Available from date or Due by date are not defined for a module, the module listing displays "Any time" in the appropriate column.

Duplicate an Existing Module

Duplication provides an easy mechanism to recycle previously generated content in the same class or a different class. A duplicated module retains all the contents of the original module but none of the responses that may have been provided in the original module. All questions in the duplicate copy must be answered by students, irrespective of responses that may have been provided in the original module.

Module Notice

Educators may deliver module-specific messages using an in-app notification system. A notice contains a message that is displayed when a student first opens the module, and can be referenced by students anytime after that. Each time a notice is modified, you may notify trainees again. Use the notice to inform trainees about prerequisites for a module, changes that have been made since the module was first published, or other pertinent information.

Adjust the Display page toggle to show or hide the notice to Students.

To edit the module notice

Click on the Home button from the left-hand sidebar
Select the Classes tab
Click on a class name from the class list (optional: filter by name using the Search for a class... bar, and/or enable the Show past classes toggle to see past classes)
Select the Modules tab
(Optional) Filter the modules by name using the Search for a module... bar above the module list

Click on the Save button
When prompted, choose Notify Students to notify* Students about this change, or choose Don’t Notify to save the changes without notifying Students
(Optional) Click on the Preview Page button to see how the content will render for Students
*The notice is delivered via a popup dialog when entering the module. Users that are logged in when the change is performed will not see the notice until a page refresh is performed (keyboard shortcut F5) or until the next time they login, and still only when they (re)enter the affected module.
