The navigation order of lesson pages is the student viewpoint. The navigational order is determined by jumps associated with a students choice, and/or special navigational pages in the lesson and/or the lesson flow control settings.
The special navigational pages are called Clusters , end of branches and end of lesson.
The logical page order is the order the teacher sees when they are editing a lesson.
Examples
Example 1
In this example, there are 10 pages. B1 is a branch page, Q2 is a question page, B3 is a branch page, and so on. Here is a logical order of a short lesson:
B1, Q2, B3, Q4, B5, Q6, B7, Q8, B9, Q10.
The teacher may have set the jumps so that after a miss the student goes to the previous page, and a right answer go to the next page. Thus the student controls the navigational order. For example, if the student missed Q4 and Q6 once, the student navigational order would be
B1, Q2, B3, Q4, B3, Q4, B5, Q6, B5, Q6, B7, Q8, B9, Q10
The teacher might ask a very hard question at Q2 and set the jump for a correct answer to B9. The point is that the navigation order is different than the Logical Page Order and the teacher guides the student by jumps. Don't forget that branch pages also can offer student neutral grade choices by their jumps.
Example 2
We have used the classic Table of Contents to present this concept before. Typically a Branch Table page has description button that serve as topic headings. In this lesson there are 3 topics and we will let the student select the order they view the topics. Notice the "Last" page. This page has two buttons, one which links back to the Table of Content page and the other which goes to the End of Lesson (exits the lesson).
- TIP: Consider when the teacher makes the last page in each series a question and sets and displays the student's score. When the teacher sets the next Lesson's dependency upon completing this Table of Contents lesson with a 100% minimum score, then a student must investigate each of the series before moving on to the next lesson.
