Course options in InfluencerSoft
InfluencerSoft gives its own platform for educational activities. Now, we have an independent system for course creation within the service. The system includes the Author’s account under the Course section in Author’s account and Student’s account. This article presents an overview of the Student’s account and illustrates its possibilities with visual explanations.
The next article will look at how a student gets access to his account, then we will describe the fine-tuning for the accessibility settings of particular courses and their modules. But here, we will mainly focus on what a student sees on his or her page.
Login, Student’s profile
The procedure to get access to the account is described in a separate article. Each student will have his or her own login (email address) and a password. This is how the login window looks like:
It shows a login field, an account registration option, and a link to restore a forgotten password. Once a student gets access to his or her account, he or she will see the available courses and the progress bar for the tasks. There are also some tiny pleasures such as a profile icon (avatar) and profile itself where a student can enter his or her account information.
Educational process
Start of the studies
To start, a student should go to the Courses section, then click “Start learning” or “Continue learning” – if he or she has already started doing some tasks of the chosen course.
Doing the tasks and preparing reports
You can create the lessons which can be accessed in reading mode only and the courses with the tasks to be done. You can attach files both to the lesson and to the particular tasks. One lesson can contain several tasks with a report for each task:
Progress
A Progress tab helps a student track the current progress for a particular course. Course modules are represented by the horizontal bars, and the color denotes its status: completed, in progress, and not started yet:
There are two tabs at the upper right corner of the page. A student can see the courses he or she has started but not completed yet (In process tab) and the completed ones (Completed tab). If a student completed all mandatory lessons, he or she may click “Finish the course”. All completed courses will be displayed in the Completed Courses tab.
Course structure
While doing a course, a student could see a drop-down menu. This shows the structure of a course.
In the article about how to create and to choose the right settings for a course, we will describe how to create inaccessible lessons, inaccessible modules, modules that become accessible in some time, as well as how to display the lesson timetable. In the end, you can create a more detailed system, which will be presented to a student like this:
Course layout
All screenshots display the default layout settings. However, you can change the color by selecting the one from the pre-set colors or by creating your own color combinations. Here is an example:
Layout settings also include fonts, logo selection, etc. You can find out more about this in
Course Settings.
