Create a Lesson

Click the Create link in the Lessons section to select options for a new lesson.

Note: Lessons are assignable to classes and students. Lesson Template cannot be assigned, they can only be used to create standardized Lessons for use across classes.

Type a name for the lesson in the Title box. The Lesson or Lesson Template title must be unique within your schools URL.

Click a radio button to select SIMnet content for Microsoft Office 2016 applications or Microsoft Office 2019. You can only add content from one or the other, and choosing here determines which you will be adding from in the next step.

Warning: Once a content type is selected, it may not be changed later.

Click the Next button to save the lesson and continue to the next page where you will be able to select the content of your Lesson or Lesson Template.

On the Skills tab, you can view the available list of skills by Module, Textbook, Lesson, or Template. Click the radio button for the view you want.

The Textbook filter option displays all available tasks for the selected textbook. Filtering by Textbook also allows you to explore tasks by Chapter.

The Module filter option displays all available tasks for the selected module or application. Filtering by Module also allows you to explore tasks by MOS objective.

The Lesson filter option displays all available tasks for lessons created by you or other instructors. The Lesson filter facilitates quickly combining multiple existing lessons.

The Template filter option displays all available tasks for templates created by you or other instructors. This filter option quickly facilitates combining multiple existing templates.

In the Available Skills list, click the skills you want to add and then click the Add button. As you add to the Assigned Skills list, SIMnet saves the lesson automatically.

At any point while adding skills to a lesson, you can preview a skill by moving your mouse over the question icon and then clicking the Preview Task button.

Use the Top, Bottom, Up, and Down buttons to reorder tasks in the Assigned Tasks list. When you reorder tasks, SIMnet saves the new task order automatically.
