After putting in the lesson settings, you will jump to a screen that asks:
 
 
What would you like to do first?
Import questions
Import PowerPoint
Add a Branch Table
Add a Question Page
 
 
:I choose to ADD A QUESTION PAGE FIRST (usually). If I choose a BRANCH TABLE, I call it "table of contents" and I just use it as the introduction page, not an instructional page.  In any case this will take you to a blank page ready to create. Once you save the first page, or import pages, you will be in edit mode.

If you click on ADD A PAGE you can insert a QUESTION.
 
If you click on the up/down arrows to the left of where it says add a page you can reorganize your pages and branches.
 
Think of a branch table as creating a section.
 
Now i teach math so I break my lessons up into
*Moodle Lesson
*Hippocampus Lesson (a website that gives math instruction)
*LiveScribe Notes (if you don't have a livescribe pen you should check it out)
 
So I will create a branch table and call it table of contents.
I then add pages for my Moodle lesson
Then I will do an "END OF BRANCH" and have it link back to the "table of contents"
I then add a page and embed the Hippocampus lesson
I then have an "END OF BRANCH" that links back to the table of contents.
I then add a page that has the livescribe notes
I then have an END OF BRANCH that links back to the table of contents.
Recently I have been putting a new BRANCH TABLE after that and I call it "jumps"
On there I put jumps to different parts in the lesson so if a math student wants to jump to a certain part of the lesson without having to go through the whole thing they can.
 
So to clean it up I have on the table of contents a link to "Continue to Moodle Lesson" and a link to "jumps" and the 3rd link on the table of contents is to "END LESSON"
 
When you are adding a link to another page, one of the link options is to choose "END OF LESSON." Student need to click this end of lesson link when they are done so that the lesson will be graded.
On my jumps page is the links to the hippocampus and livescribe as well as to different parts of the Moodle lesson. Keeps my Table of Contents more clean.
 
I do not import powerpoints or import questions, so I can't be much help there. If I want to use a powerpoint I upload it to google docs and embed a link to it into my lesson, I prefer that.
 
When you open the lesson you should have 4 links along the "top"
Click on EDIT is when you should see the options to add a page.
