Courses and publishing

1. In Courses, choose Create course and save its details. New institute courses start as drafts.
2. Add modules, then lessons inside each module. Arrange them in the order learners should follow.
3. Build each lesson with rich text, Markdown, equations, diagrams, video, audio, documents, downloads and links. Interactive activities support approved PhET, GeoGebra and Desmos embeds. Optional code, notebooks and labs appear when coding tools are enabled; SCORM is available where configured.
4. Prepare assessment questions in Questions. Learners answer them through quizzes set for a batch, rather than directly inside a lesson.

Links to staff pages need a sign-in.

Drafts are written by Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, from what you type and the material you give; nothing about learners is sent. Check every fact before learners see it: nothing from a draft reaches them until you add it, and learners never use drafting.

1. Once an admin has turned on AI drafting in Settings, open a lesson you can edit and choose Draft with AI.
2. Say what the lesson should cover. To keep the draft to your own notes or a page you trust, paste them in Your material. If your plan includes coding, you can also choose a language for code examples learners can run. Choose Draft with AI.
3. Read the draft, then add it to the end of the lesson with the button below it. Its text sections and code examples become ordinary blocks, which you edit, move or delete like any other.

Course details include subject, comma-separated topics, level or grade, and curriculum. Coding tools are off for new courses; enable them for programming lessons. Existing code blocks remain accessible if you switch the option off.

Use Insert equation in the rich-text toolbar for LaTeX, or type delimiters such as \(x^2\) and \[x^2\]. Equations render in lessons, question previews and learner assessments. Use Insert image to upload a diagram or enter its URL, with a description for screen readers.

Audio blocks can include a transcript. Documents and downloads can be private uploads or external links. Uploaded files are protected by course access; external URLs retain the access rules of their host. Interactive activities must use approved embed URLs.

Publishing an institute course does not make it a public course. Access remains scoped to the institute and its enrolled learners.

1. Open the draft and choose Preview course. Check the lesson order, content and links.
2. Add at least one active lesson in an active module before publishing.
3. Choose Publish version on the course page. The course can now be assigned to a batch; learners still need the appropriate enrolment to access it.

Published curriculum is locked. Batch quizzes and assignments are managed separately; assessment attempts keep their recorded settings.

1. Open the published course and choose Create draft version.
2. Edit and preview the new draft, then publish it when ready.
3. Use the new version for future batches. Existing batches keep their original version, curriculum and learner progress.
