Overview: chapter context and progress
A chapter belongs to a subject. Check the breadcrumb, description and related academic context before updating it. The overview shows the workflow status, progress and available manager actions. Main-teacher assignment is an Admin control where the screen provides it; not every curriculum level exposes that assignment control.
New, In Progress, Completed and other available workflow states must be interpreted as curriculum state, not a student's marks. Progress can be derived from child work. Use the inline status selector where shown to avoid opening an edit dialog solely for a state change.
Steps
- Open the chapter from its parent context.
- Review Overview, then choose the tab for the work you need.
- Use Edit or a status control only if it is available for your role and scope.
Topics: organize the next curriculum level
The Topics tab lists the next level inside this chapter. Search, change the supported view and open a child to work more precisely. Descriptions can be shortened in a list; open the detail page to read the full context.
Authorized staff can add child records and use available reorder or status controls. Reordering changes presentation order, not enrollment or grades. A content-create grant does not authorize an unrelated organization's records.
Steps
- Choose Topics and locate the intended record.
- Use Add topic when permitted.
- Review titles, descriptions and workflow state before saving.
Assignments at this level
Assignments here are attached directly to this chapter. A task on a child level can have its own page and may appear in reporting even when it is not a direct assignment row here. Confirm the scope before creating duplicate work.
The list supports search and the views shown by the screen. Staff can use available add, edit, status or delete actions. Draft assignments are hidden from Students. Open an assignment for submissions, grading, public share links and discussion.
Steps
- Choose Assignments and check the task scope.
- Open existing work or use Add assignment when authorized.
- Use the assignment detail guide for submission and evaluation steps.
Resources: files and learning links
Resources keeps files and URLs associated with this chapter. Open View resources to see all files or links in a grouped item. File downloads and external links may open separately from the academic page.
Authorized staff can add, edit, remove or reorder resources where offered. A file upload consumes organization storage unless it is a profile image. Free plans block non-profile image uploads, and a full storage allowance can block new attachments even when a user has academic editing access.
Steps
- Choose Resources and open the intended item.
- To add one, select the resource action and choose a file or URL.
- Confirm the correct academic level before saving.
Reports: outcomes across this curriculum
Reports presents assignment outcomes in the chapter's visible context. Parent-level reports can include child-level assignments. Change the report period where offered and read submitted and evaluated counts as separate stages.
Result bands and average marks are based on recorded evaluations; a zero result is not missing data. The Student report must remain limited to the student's own work. For an unexpected value, inspect the underlying assignment and submission rather than changing curriculum status to force a report change.
Steps
- Choose Reports and select a time range.
- Inspect assignment rows and result bands.
- Open the underlying task for a permitted follow-up.
Discussion for this academic record
Discussion attaches a conversation to this specific chapter, which keeps questions separate from a class-wide thread or another topic. Read existing messages and use an appropriate mention from the available list.
Comments do not submit assignments or change workflow status. Use the dedicated submission or management action for those tasks. Share only information suitable for the participants who can access this academic record.
Steps
- Open Discussion.
- Write a context-specific question or update.
- Submit and check that it appears in this thread.
Add topics within this chapter
Topics divides a chapter into smaller learning units. Use Add topic to enter a title and description, then verify its placement and initial state. Ordering controls arrange the learning sequence where provided.
Topic assignments and resources stay in their own context. Adding a topic does not automatically duplicate a different topic's files or student submissions.
Steps
- Open Topics and choose Add topic.
- Enter the topic details and save.
- Open the new topic to continue with its own assignments/resources.
