Learnexify Course Description

Course Descriptions in Learnexify define the complete structure and detailed information of a course. They include key details such as course identity, duration, credits, cost, grading criteria, versioning, and assessment settings.

They help ensure that every course is properly structured, clearly defined, and easy to manage within the system.

• Here you will see all existing course descriptions.

• Click on the “Add Course Description” button if you want to create a new course description. Then a form will appear. 

Section 1: Course Details:

In this section, you will configure the primary settings and administrative information for the course:

• Name (Required): Enter the full title of the course. This field is mandatory and is the primary way users will identify the course on the platform.
  
• Code: Assign a unique shorthand code to categorize the course within the system, making it easier to organize and search for specific modules.
  
• ID Number (Required): Enter a unique identification number required for system tracking. This ensures that every course is distinctly recognized in the database.
  
• Description: Provide a comprehensive overview or a detailed explanation of the course content, outlining what the students will learn and achieve.

• Course Template in Learnexify:
  Functionality: This feature is used to assign a predefined structure to your course. It determines how the learning content, assessments, and overall flow will behave within the system.

• Click "Browse" to open a selection window displaying all available templates in the system.
• Choose the appropriate template that matches your course requirements.
• Once selected, the template name will appear in the field.
• If you wish to remove or change the selection, use the "Clear" button to reset the field.

Section 2: Pre- and Post-tests:

This section is used to manage the evaluation and assessment process:

• Pre-test: Select or configure a test to be taken before the course begins to evaluate the student’s baseline knowledge level.
  
• Post-test: Select the final assessment to be taken after course completion to measure the knowledge gained and overall learning success.

Finalizing the Process:

• Save Changes: After ensuring all details are correctly filled, scroll to the bottom and click the Save Changes button to officially create the course description.
