Lessons are made up of blocks. Each block is a section of content or an interactive element that students work through.


​

Available block types

The following block types are available when building lessons:

  • Content - Text, images, and formatting for explanations and instructions

  • Multiple Choice - Single-answer questions with auto-marking

  • Free Response - Open-ended text answers, optionally auto-marked against a mark scheme

  • True/False - Simple true or false questions with auto-marking

  • Match - Pair matching questions where students connect terms with definitions

  • Resequence - Drag-and-drop ordering questions where students arrange items in the correct sequence

  • Reflection - Open-ended prompts for student reflection (not marked)

  • Video - Embedded video content
