| ===Flexpage Course Format===
| |
| | |
| Flexpage is a course format that provides a teacher with complete control of how educational materials and assessments are presented to a student. Flexpage allows a teacher to create a flexible set of pages and sub pages where blocks and activities can be placed in any location on the page instead of being restricted to a right, left or center column. Flexpage courses provide teachers with the ability to determine how many columns of data are contained within a course (up to three-columns). This allows teachers to have complete control over how they want to present course materials and assessments to students.
| |
| | |
| | |
| The basic features of Flexpage are: | |
| | |
| * '''Multiple Pages:''' A Flexpage course can contain an infinite number of pages. Each flexpage can contain different or the same blocks, activities and resources as another page.
| |
| * '''Child Pages:''' A Flexpage course can contain an infinite number of child flexpages and children of child flexpages in a infinite sub structure. This parent child relationship allows teachers to create a unique course structure based on their teaching style and preference.
| |
| * '''Flexible Course Structure:''' Flexpages can contain up to 3 columns as well as a top region that blocks and activities can be added to. Each flexpage can have a different structure (i.e., number of columns and areas content is located).
| |
| * '''Inline Resource/Activity Display:''' The format can be extended to display resource and activity content inline (in the flexpage). This currently only works for forums and resources - other activities show a link as expected.
| |
| * '''Previous/Next Button:''' When you enter a flexpage, there are previous and next arrows to return you to the page you were previously on or back to where you came from.
| |
| * '''Flexpage Menus:''' A Teacher can create an expandable menu that is displayed as a block or drop-down menu on flexpages. This menu can contain links to other flexpages, trouble tickets, as well as internal and external resources. These menus will also work with flexpage and activity access restrictions.
| |
| * '''Backup and Restore:''' Any course in Flexpage format can be fully or partially backed up and copied to another course.
| |
| * '''Flexpage access restriction:''' Flexpages can have their access restricted for students based on the completion of assignments and resource views.
