Add Content from Plugin

The publisher can create a structured learning experience by adding content in the course.

Content can be added to a course in two ways:

1. By selecting the various content options from the left menu. (Add template, Upload file, External resource, Content from the library, assessment)

Or

2. By adding content from the plugins within the CK editor.

Follow the below steps to add content from the plugins within the CK editor.

1. Click on the "three-dot icon on the CK editor" icon to open the menu.

2. Click the "Plugins" button to add the following content in the course.

• Add an external resource 
• Add from Library 
• Add Test

Add External Resource

If you click on the Add External resource from the step 2, you will see the below pop-up.

• Click on the Insert link to add URL in the course
• Click 'Save'.

Or Click on the 'Insert LTI tool' to insert content using desired LTI Tools.

Add From Library 

If you click on the Add from the library from step 2, you will see the below pop-up.

The pop-up will display two dashboards. You can select the dashboard to view the content in the course library and content library, respectively.

Course Library will show the list of content added previously in the course from the author's system. This content is not part of the content library on the platform.

Content Library will show the list of existing content already available on the portal. 

• Select "Course Library" if you want to add content that is already published in a course or select "Content Library" if you want to add content from the library on the portal. 
• Click on the content thumbnail to make the selection. You can also search, sort, and filter the content.
• Select the default launch setting - New window or Embedded Window. The new window option will launch the content in the new window and the embedded window will launch the content within the course player. 
• Click "Add" to add the selected content to the course. 

Add test

If you click on the Add test from step 2, you will see the "Select Test to Add in Course" pop-up on the screen. 

• Click on the assessment thumbnail to make the selection. You can also search the test with title.
• Select the default launch setting - New window or Embedded Window. The new window option will launch the test in the new window and the embedded window will launch the test within the course player. 
• Click "Add" to add the selected test to the course. 

Note 

• If the content is added from the CK editor, then the preview of the content can be seen on the right panel in the course authoring tool. 
• If the author has selected the view option as Embedded while adding any content/assessment in the course from the plugin, only then Student can see the various content view options (Pop up, Fullscreen, side by side, inline view) in the course player.
• The side-by-side view will not be visible for epub and game content types.
