Key information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are several important factors you must consider before adding content to your Ultra course, for example, how to make best use of Ultra Documents and how content best fits within the Course template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The guides listed under Course Structure<\/strong> on this page will give you a good starting point for building your course, using the course template and understanding the types of containers (e.g. folders, Ultra Documents) and how they can be used to structure your content.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

How it works?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To add content to your Ultra course go to the Course Content area and hover over the dividing line, where you would like the new content to appear, until it turns purple and a plus sign icon appears. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Click on the plus sign icon to see the add content menu. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The options on the menu are Create, Copy Content, Upload, Content Market (LTI tools page) and Content Collection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Course templates<\/strong> are being used on Ultra courses to provide consistency across modules.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
