Course Builder
Course Builder: This is the bread and butter of the builder. The hierarchy of all the content is crucial for admins and instructors to know properly.


A Course will have Topics, and Topics will have Lessons and Quizzes. There can be multiple quizzes and lessons inside a single topic, but we highly recommend 2-5 lessons and 1 quiz for maximum effectiveness.
Add New Topic: This button will take you to the topic creation menu where you can give the topic a name and summary. There are tooltips to help you guide through the process. Once you’ve added the required information, you can start adding lessons and quizzes from the buttons below the corresponding topics.
Lesson: Each lesson has a title, description, and optional featured image.
- Video Source: Video source will allow you to add a source for the video lesson. Similar to the intro video, you can add external or internal sources. After adding the video, add the video playback time to the required field.
- Upload Attachments: You can also upload attachments from the courses to supply the necessary materials for this lesson. Once you’re done, you can click on Update Lesson to save and close this tab
