Guidelines
Keep these guidelines in mind when creating Learning Content topics:
- You can reuse the existing technical content by:
- Reusing the technical content directly in the Learning Content Body element
- Appending task topics, concept topics, and reference topics to Learning maps as Learning content references
- If the reused content is not sufficient, you can add new learning content in the Learning Instruction element or section elements
- You can use the section element to embed interactive activities specific to Learning Assessments
Example
The following Learning content topic contains a section element that introduces new instructional content and reuses the task topic “Add Existing Content to a Map” by using the conref attribute.
Tip: Alternatively, the “Add Existing Content to a Map” topic can be appended to the Learning map on its own as a Learning content reference.
