Insert a list

Lists are an efficient way to organize and structure content in your course or assessment. They allow you to present information clearly and orderly, enhancing comprehension and engagement for learners. In Teach Up, you can insert ordered or unordered lists, enrich them with images and colors, and add intro games to them.

Summary

Lists can be inserted in a course or an assessment.

Activate intro games on a list (courses only)

To activate an intro game on a list, follow these steps:

  1. Click on the pink puzzle piece puzzle_rose below your list.
  2. Select “Automatically generate interactive games”.

This intro game related to the list will appear before learners can view the list, serving as an introduction to the topic.

There are two intro games for lists:

  • matching each title with its description: learners match each step title with its description;
  • putting the steps back in order: learners rebuild the correct order of the steps.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use a list in an assessment?

Yes, the list is available in both courses and assessments. Note, however, that intro games on lists are only available in courses.

What is the difference between an ordered list and an unordered list?

In an unordered list (the default type), learners can view the steps in any order they like. In an ordered list, the steps are unlocked one after the other: step 2 only becomes available after step 1.

How do I make viewing all the steps mandatory?

Enable the “Make discovering all the steps mandatory” option from the gear icon, in the list configuration panel.
