Add content to your course

CourseLit uses the concept of a Lesson. It is very similar to what we generally see in books, i.e., a large piece of information is divided into smaller chunks called lessons.

Similarly, you can break down your course into Lessons and group the lessons into Sections.

Sections

Sections are used to group lessons.

Lessons

A lesson is a container for the actual learning material. CourseLit supports multiple types of lessons, which are as follows.

1. Text

   For sharing textual content.

2. Video

   For sharing video lectures.

3. Audio

   For sharing quick audio recordings.

4. PDF

   For sharing PDF files. The file will be embedded in the lesson.

5. File

   For sharing binary files like a zip file containing an assignment with the students.

6. Embed

   For embedding HTML or iframe based content.

7. Quiz

   For quizzing your students. You can create graded and non-graded quizzes.

   See the guide to add a quiz.

8. SCORM

   For sharing SCORM packages.

   See the guide to add a SCORM package.
