Content Building

This section explains how to structure learning material using Articles, KLPs, and Elements; referred to collectively as Element Objects within MAXRES Construct.

Overview​

Content in MAXRES Construct follows a strict hierarchical format inside each Course:
Page > Article > KLP > Element

Understanding how to use and configure each element is essential to building complete and error-free learning content.

Requirements​

  • Access to the Course Editor
  • At least one Page created within your course

Articles group related Blocks and define core topics or learning points within a Page.

  • A Page must contain at least one Article.
  • Articles can also be used for grouping assessments.
