How to create an exercise in a lesson

Exercises live inside a lesson, and a lesson lives inside a material. You pick a lesson section, click “Add an exercise”, choose a template in the gallery and fill it in the editor.

How to do it

  1. Open a lesson of your material

    In Materials open your material and pick a lesson on the Contents tab. The lesson editor opens: sections on the right (Section 1, Section 2…), the current section's exercises in the middle.

  2. Pick a section and click “Add an exercise”

    Choose a section in the right panel and click Add an exercise below its content. Plus icons between exercises let you insert a task at a particular position.

  3. Choose a template in the gallery

    The “Template Selection” screen opens. Templates are grouped: Words and gaps, Tests, Images, Audio and video, Words and pictures, Working with text, Arrange in the correct order, Other. Use “Search by name” or the “My usual ones” shelf for favourites.

  4. Fill in the exercise

    After picking a template the editor for that type opens: “Enter the word in the gap” asks for text with gaps, “True, false, not stated” asks for statements. Fill in the fields and save. Back in the lesson you land on the exercise you just created.

  5. Adjust order and settings

    Review the task inside the lesson. Its actions menu lets you reopen the editor and correct the content. If you change the exercise type, check the result before saving.

Good to know

Troubleshooting

Some templates in the gallery are disabled

Check the unavailable template’s explanation and the taught language in the material settings. Language tools need a suitable language selected. Contact support if the reason is unclear.

I can't find the template I need

Type a word into “Search by name” — it searches all groups at once. If you see “Nothing found”, try another word such as “gap” or “test”.
