To make learning with MLS fun and successful, you should not make your learning tasks too long. Then the learning task will quickly become confusing and your learners may lose sight of the central theme.
There aren't always just short learning tasks - you might carry out projects such as building a small lorry, a locomotive or a Bluetooth speaker.
In this case, use the option of structuring learning tasks into projects.
This is the best way to proceed.
Step 1 - Conception
Before you start creating the individual learning tasks, think about a structure for them.
How many learning tasks do you want to create?
Are the learning tasks manageable for your learners in the time allotted?
How many days/weeks/months will the entire project take?
Do you want all learning tasks to be visible to your learner immediately or will they be released step by step? (This is important for activating the project later!)
Step 2 - Create learning tasks
Once you have finalised your concept, start creating the learning tasks. You can see how to do this here.
Step 3 - Create project & activate
Once you have created all the learning tasks, you can create the project. You will find the button for this in the left-hand menu under ‘Task administration’.
In the next step, enter a short description text. Also decide here whether the learning tasks in the project should be activated one after the other (‘Individually’) or all at once (‘All’).
In step 2, you compile the learning tasks that belong to the project. If you have assigned keywords to the learning tasks in advance, you can also filter by these.
You can use the double bar symbol to change the order simply by dragging and dropping. You can also delete learning tasks (these are only removed from the project) or edit them again.
💡 Don't forget to save your project.
Click on ‘<- Back to list’ to activate it.
It is best to search for your project using the filter. Use ‘Assign project’ to activate it for your trainees.
When activating, you can choose whether it is activated for individual users or groups.
You also have some additional options, such as limiting the time from when to when the project can be edited.
