In the lesson page, you type in the following information:
{{Activities}}
the '''name''' of the lesson, the '''maximum grade''' a student can get for doing the lesson, the '''maximum number of branches''' a student will be required to give in the lesson(also called '''the maximum number of branches''' (you can have 20 branches maximum).  You will also have to decide the following: if the lesson is '''timed''' (if you choose to time the lesson, you need to decide how much time students will have for the lesson);if students can retake the lesson or not (if you allow students to retake the lesson, you can choose one the two scoring methods: mean - average - or the max grade; AND between what dates the lesson is available to students.
Also you can make your lesson '''a practice lesson'''


''The Maximum Number of Answers in a Lesson''
This value determines the maximum number of answers the teacher can use. The default value is 4. If the lesson uses only, say, TRUE or FALSE questions throughout then it is sensible to set this value to 2.


This parameter also sets the maximum number of Branches that can be used in a Branch Table.
[[Image:Lesson icon.gif]] The lesson module presents a series of HTML pages to the student who is usually asked to make some sort of choice underneath the content area. The choice will send them to a specific page in the Lesson. In a Lesson page's simplest form, the student can select a continue button at the bottom of the page, which will send them to the next page in the Lesson.  


It is safe to change the value of this parameter in a lesson with existing content. In fact if you want to add a question with many choices or a long Branch table changing this parameter will be necessary. After the (unusual) question or BranchTable has been added this parameter can be reduced to a more "standard" value.

There are also several advanced navigational pages which can meet more specialized needs of the Teacher. The Lesson module was designed to be adaptive and to use a student's choices to create a self directed lesson.
