Tips for creating content

Use descriptive titles

When creating a new content item (course, chapter or a page), choose a clear and concise title that accurately reflects its content.

  • Avoid vague titles like Chapter 1; instead, use descriptive titles like Introduction to Algebra.

  • For course title, use the Title case format and capitalize all major words (nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, pronouns). Avoid capitalizing articles, prepositions, and coordinating conjunctions.

  • For chapter and page titles, capitalize only the first letter of the title.

  • For page titles, add the type of the content at the end of the title.

    • Example: Types of actuators (lecture slides)

Break content into digestible sections

Avoid long, unstructured text sections to enhance readability.

  • Use headings (e.g., H1, H2, H3) to divide content into smaller, manageable parts.

  • Include bullet points, numbered lists, or tables for clarity.

  • Keep paragraphs short to improve readability.

Incorporate multimedia and examples

Make the content more engaging and illustrative with visual aids.

  • Add images, tables, and charts.

  • Create drawings using the built-in tool.

  • Embed PDF files, videos, and sound media.

  • Include real-world examples or case studies to help learners relate to the material.

Leverage tags for better organization

Use tags to categorize content, making it easier to find through the search feature.

  • Tags can be simple keywords or a key/value pair for structured metadata.

  • Use consistent tagging to improve searchability and navigation.
