==================
|
|
|
|
The course experience consists of a number of views:
|
|
|
|
1. **Course Home**
|
|
|
|
The course home page is the landing page for the course. It presents
|
|
the learner with information necessary to understand the purpose of the
|
|
course, its content, and its milestones. It includes a "Course Tools"
|
|
section that provides links to other tools associated with the course.
|
|
For example, it includes tools such as reviews, updates and bookmarks.
|
|
|
|
2. **Welcome Message**
|
|
|
|
The welcome message is a fragment view which is typically shown on the
|
|
course home page. It provides the user with a description of the course
|
|
and helps them to understand its requirements.
|
|
|
|
3. **Course Outline**
|
|
|
|
The course outline is a fragment view which shows an outline of the content
|
|
of the course.
|
|
|
|
4. **Course Dates**
|
|
|
|
The course dates fragment is a view which shows users important dates for the
|
|
course, such as the start and end dates.
|
|
|
|
5. **Course Sock**
|
|
|
|
The course sock is a fragment view which is typically shown just above
|
|
the footer of course pages (hence the name). The default implementation
|
|
presents the users with a message encouraging them to purchase a verified
|
|
certificate.
|
|
|
|
6. **Course Updates**
|
|
|
|
The course updates page shows the user all of the course team's updates
|
|
in a scrolling list. The updates page is also provided as a course tool.
|
|
|
|
A number of the features in the course experience are controlled via Waffle
|
|
flags. For documentation, see `Waffle flag definitions`_.
