In LearnWorlds it is super easy to Create your Courses and you don't have to be an expert to create a successful online course. You can create, host, and promote your online courses without any technical skills.
Course Sections & Learning Activities
Each course is divided into sections, and each section can include learning activities.
Sections allow you to better organize your course content and they are hugely important for giving you granular control over how you share your content. You can enable the timely release of your course section if you set the course delivery and choose to Drip feed your course sections.
Sections help you break down your course's content into smaller pieces and each section can have a title and status and hence can be set as a draft, soon, free, or paid to manage your courses better. For example, you can Offer Free Sections in a Paid Course.
Check out how to use sections and organize your courses below.
Add Course Sections
1. Create your Course and click on the Contents tab in your desired course.
Course Section Access Status
Status | Properties |
Draft | This section is invisible to the users. It is the recommended status when your section is "under construction". |
Soon | This section is visible to users on the course page but they cannot access the learning activities. It is recommended when you want to keep your users up-to-date on future releases. You can also use this status for courses that you want to pre-sell (without having the actual content). |
Free | This section is visible and accessible to users even if they have not been enrolled in the course. It is the recommended status when the whole course is free or if you want to share a free sample of your course. |
Paid | This section is accessible only to users who have purchased the course. It is recommended for non-free courses. |
