Lesson Outline

Also known as Table of Contents, you will see the lesson outline. This is where all Lesson Categories and Subcategories live.
-
All Lesson Categories must have at least one subcategory.
-
Within the Lesson Outline you can build Lesson Categories and Lessons.
|
Flashcards
|
-
Flashcard Categories are the structure of all Flashcard content.
-
Flashcards have two sides—one with a key term or concept, the other with the definition or explanation.
-
Flashcards help learners study content and are typically positioned after Lesson content in the Study Plan. Flashcards on our platform mimic their paper equivalent.
-
You can build Flashcard categories in this area.

Questions
|
-
Question Categories are the structure of all Question content.
-
Shows practice and test questions.
-
Offers a variety of Answer Types and allows you to connect groups of questions to the same content, called Passages.
-
You can build question categories and passages in this area.
-
Each question belongs to a category; sub-categories are optional.
-
On both BluePrint and the WebApp, Questions appear nested within their categories.
|
Tests
|
-
There are two types of tests on our platform: timed and untimed. A timed test is called Full Length Test (FLT) in BluePrint.
-
By default, tests are untimed on our platform. However, you can change a test to a full length.
-
Untimed tests contain a series of questions, but no sections or breaks.
-
Test Questions are not immediately followed by explanations and related lessons. Rather, a learner must complete the entire assessment before viewing answer explanations.
|
Study Tasks
|
-
There are two types of study plans: Adaptive and Structured. Within the lesson, we will focus on Structured Study Plans.
-
An Adaptive Study Plan orders course content, called Knowledge Sets, based on the user's mastery of the material. To learn more about adaptive study plans, click here.
-
A Structured Study Plan is a linear pathway through all course content.
-
Structured Study Plan tasks contain either lessons, flashcards, practice questions, or a test.
|
Milestones
|
-
Restricts learners from seeing specific content in the learning application until meeting certain criteria.
-
Gives course designers more control over how learners consume content.
-
Course designers can use Milestones to prevent learners from taking a particular exam until they complete certain lessons, for example.
-
Offers positive reinforcement through tracking and achievements
-
