  • Organize Stuff  

    There are five ways to organize your learning activities in Ecto.  They are:

    1. Sets
    2. Folders
    3. Lessons
    4. Courses
    5. Schools

    1. Sets
    Click on The Library link at the top of the Ecto page



    2. Folders
    Once you have your search results, select the activities you would like to copy by clicking on the check boxes to the left of each item. Then, click the Copy Selected Items button.

    In the example to the right we are choosing one multiple choice question.


    3. Lessons
    The last step is to pick a location in Your Study to paste the activity.

    Choose the location for your activity from the pane on the left. If you want to place the item inside a set, such as a Homework set or Test set, select that set from the right pane. If you would like to create a new folder or lesson click on the " Create New Folder" or "Create New Lesson" links. Click the copy button.

    You're done! Now get busy learning.

    4. Courses
    Once you have your search results, select the activities you would like to copy by clicking on the check boxes to the left of each item. Then, click the Copy Selected Items button.

  • A brief overview of Ecto!
    1. Unlocked Content
    The smallest parts in Ecto are what we call unlocked content or activities.  Activities can be multiple choice questions (MC), short answer questions (SA), web pages, flashcards (FD or FS), resources (RE), journals, files and multimedia content.  We will explain in more detail what each one of these activities are later.
     
    2. Sets
    Sets are just an assemply of activities.  The intent of the set determines if it is a test or a homework assignment.  There are a bunch of options with a set such as when the set becomes available and how the person using the set can naviagte through it.
     
    3. Assembly
    Assemblies are containers such as a folder or a lesson where you can keep activities or sets.  In other words in helps you organize the learning content.
     
    4. Groups
    Groups are a higher level organizational tool.  The one important thing about groups is that you can let other people join  your group or you can join someone elses group.  We will discuss the issues around groups in detail later.

    OK, now its time to get creative!
