Objective
• The purpose of this presentation is to guide participants step-by-step through the learning module building process
![Page 3: Building a learning module](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103118/55c00159bb61eb4a748b46a8/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Objective
• At the conclusion of the presentation you will have the framework in place for your learning module– Specific tools and elements will be introduced in
module 2

Getting Started
• Begin at the home page of your course
• Click the + icon at the top of the left side navigation pane
• Select content area• Give the area a name
– Modules if you plan more than one
– Unit title if you plan for one
• Do not make the area available to users
• Click the submit button

Setting the Stage
• The module page should begin with an introductory piece that sets expectations and provides a guide of how to proceed through the modules
• Here we will build the page as a document that remains above the module list
![Page 6: Building a learning module](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103118/55c00159bb61eb4a748b46a8/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Setting the Stage
• From the build content menu select blank page
• In the content box add in information about what users should expect, how to move through the module, and what to do when they are finished

Setting the Stage
• Make sure users can access the page immediately
• You may add content now if desired• Note: This page can be created and content
added at the end once the module takes shape

Module Setup
• Next we will build the learning module landing page– Starting point for the learning module– Will contain all content elements and assessments– “A self-contained lesson”

Module Setup
• From the build content menu select learning module
• Give the module a name and an optional description
![Page 10: Building a learning module](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103118/55c00159bb61eb4a748b46a8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Module Setup
• Determine if you want users to proceed through the module in a linear fashion or if they are allowed to move freely through the content
![Page 11: Building a learning module](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103118/55c00159bb61eb4a748b46a8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Module Setup
• Choose to make the learning module available or to hide it– It is hidden from users anyway while the module
content area is made unavailable
![Page 12: Building a learning module](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103118/55c00159bb61eb4a748b46a8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Module Setup
• Date restrictions can be used to have a module appear automatically at a given point in time
![Page 13: Building a learning module](https://reader038.vdocuments.site/reader038/viewer/2022103118/55c00159bb61eb4a748b46a8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Module Setup
• Decide if you want students to access the table of contents
• Removing it encourages users to move sequentially through the module
