Navigating the Course Page

Course Page Three-Dot Menu

Before you navigate into your questions to do further work, spend some time with the three-dot menu in this panel. From here you can:

• Add tags
• Export content
• Add AI sources

Adding Tags

The popup box below should become familiar, as it is a consistent option throughout the tool where you can add learning objectives, topics, common mistakes, and audiences.

Though you can add these at the question level, as well (using the three-dot menu on that screen), thinking about each of these elements on a course-wide level is a great way to structure a course that is focused and clear.

If you're not familiar with course tags and their powerful uses, check out the article Using Tags to learn more.

Exporting Content

You can export your course as an Excel spreadsheet either with HTML or as plain text. This can be helpful for:

• Searching course content
• Cross-referencing material from one course to another
• Course review (this is not the preferred course review method, as we really like our new and improved comment tool, but it's an option)

Adding AI Sources

If you're using Amplifire's AI Assistant (and you should because it's really nifty), you can populate it with source content so that it gives you even more targeted and intelligent output. Even though you will need to do most of your work with the AI Assistant at the question level, you'll add all of your sources at once for easy access.

To add sources, follow these instructions:

1. Click the three-dot menu
2. Click Add AI Sources
3. Provide a title for your source
4. Copy and paste your source content into the Source text field
5. Click Add Source

Once you've added your source(s), you can remove and edit them by selecting those options in the list under AI Source Content.

Then, once you're in the question, you can add a source for the AI Assistant to use in drafting your question.

Publishing Issues

Publishing issues are important elements that Amplifire will flag if they are missing, and you cannot publish without addressing the issue. Publishing issues can include:

• Missing fields required fields:
  • Question name
  • Question stem
  • Answer choices
• Gap finder (practice test):
  • Incorrectly configured settings
• Incomplete structure of content:
  • Course missing modules
  • Module missing questions
  • Shadow group missing at least two questions
  • Chain group missing at least two questions
• Other publishing issues:
  • Duplicate answer choices
  • Question created with AI needs to be approved

Recommended Actions

Recommended actions are important elements that Amplifire recommends and will flag if they are missing, but a course can still be published with those issues present. Recommended actions can include:

• Missing alt text
• Missing topics

Publishing Your Course

Publishing in Amplifire is an important step in getting content in front of learners. Only a published course can be turned into a course with which learners can engage. To publish your course the first time, you’ll need to go the course page and hit Publish.

If your course is not missing any of its necessary elements, you will see a gray Publish button.

If your course shows any publishing issues, you must clear all of those before the button becomes clickable.

But even when the Publish button is available, you still need to review your course to make sure it's ready for prime time.
