What just happened?

Now look at the course. It is starting to take shape. Anyone looking at this page will know the purpose of the course, the goals, and see how it is broken down. Clarity in layout and contextualization can help reduce the stress of the participant and provide direction on what to do.

You will also notice that now once a topic has some content, the summary name which we added forms the navigation tree in the navigation block. This is a really powerful aspect of Moodle 2.0; with just one click a participant can focus in on the topic they want, and also swap to other topics quite easily.

Reflection

Think about the existing product development and implementation at your organization. After completing this section, what changes to the process would you recommend? What additions do you think would help maximize the success of a product rollout?

Have a go hero - adding more topics

Once you have the course created, you suddenly realize that you need to add another lesson for another target audience or constituent. So we need to add in another topic.

Doing this is very straightforward, and just requires us changing the existing course settings and editing in a summary name, and a descriptive label.

Don't forget that you will need to move that topic above the last one using the move icon on the right side of the topic.
