Let's Create a Course

Creating courses in Cognise is very simple and all users can create learning.

Under Let's Create, a member picks a template and can then build their course.

✏️ Standard members need to be in a group that allows all members to create learning.

Course Builder

The course builder is a modern creation tool hand crafted by our product team. The builder produces stunning graphic rich HTML learning outputs. Much the same as a modern website builder would output, except the focus here is learning. There are plenty of interactive components and more coming soon!

Themes

Courses have themes which consist of setouts for:

  • Fonts, and style

  • Color palettes

  • Button style

  • Other elements e.g., Dividers

The theme is what drives color, and the fonts and styles learners see in the course. In Cognise, there are currently 16 pre-made themes available, and a creator can switch themes at any time.

Content Blocks

There is a wide range of content blocks available that can be added to a course. These include:

  • Text setouts

  • Image setouts

  • Multimedia - video, video embed, embed, audio, PDF, Link, HTML

  • Interactive layouts - tabs, accordions, processes, hotspot

  • Quiz setouts

  • Knowledge Check question setouts

  • Table of Contents setouts

  • Incomplete, Complete, Failed setouts

The builder also has thousands of images - photos, abstract, 3D, and illustrations.

Course Building

An author selects from one of our templates and goes and builds! The intuitive builder allows authors to learn fast. Layouts and blocks are easily added, edited, duplicated (copied), or removed.

Courses can be rapidly built and published, or removed and deleted. We encourage all members to go experiment and build a course.
