How to create lessons

Each course on Bero has a set of lessons within it.

To add a new lesson to a course, go to the page for that course and select ‘add lesson’ which will be where the ‘add child page’ button usually is, then fill in the fields in the four main tabs you have for adding content to a lesson:

Lesson details tab

Add a title, an image for the title card (which will be cropped from the centre into a square for the lesson icon and a circle for the 'hero' image on the first card of a lesson), a short description of the lesson, and an (optional) longer description.

Lesson content tab

This tab is where you add cards that will make up the bulk of the lesson. For more information on what cards should be included in each lesson, please review this document on the technical guidelines for content on Bero.

There are several card types which you can add to the lesson:

  • Objective card (title and description)

  • Card with image (text & image)

  • Audio or video card (media file - audio or video)

  • Basic card (just text)

  • List (bullet-point list)

  • Quote (quote and author)

  • HTML5 interactive element card (rarely used)

  • Quiz - Choose one (quiz card with one answer)

  • Quiz - Choose multiple (quiz card with multiple answers)

To add a card, select the '+' and then select the card type from the menu. Here’s an example of adding a ‘quiz - choose one’ card, which is what you do when you want to create a question with one correct answer:

To re-order cards, select the ^ or v to move the card upwards or downwards, and to delete cards, click the trash can in the top right corner:

Discussion questions tab

This is the tab where you add questions you want the learners to discuss with other learners following the lesson.

Note: Discussion questions relate to certain lessons, but are not located within the lessons themselves. They appear within a discussion tab on the app that is next to the lessons tab on a course page. Users have the option of going straight to this tab once the lesson is complete.
