Toolbar: Info page
Each course and each OpenOlat learning resource has an info page. For courses, this page is referred to as "Course info". The information entered here is already visible before a course or learning resource is booked or entered by learners.
In this way, teachers can make central information available to the target group in advance. This includes, for example:
- Names of the teachers involved
- Description of the event
- Language
- Execution period
- Time expenditure, learning objectives, requirements, certification
- License type of the learning resource
The info page also contains a link to start or book the course.
Many teachers add a picture or video to the event. This picture and a first part of the description then also appear in the overview under "My courses" or "Favorites", unless the table view has been selected.
Information and sections
Automatically generated information
OpenOlat automatically generates additional information that is important for users. This includes:
- The external link to the course or learning resource for direct access.
- Technical information with the course ID, the date of the last modification, etc. The ID is the automatically generated identification number of the learning resource. With this ID you can search for the learning resource via the search mask.
- My data with the current status, the last access, etc.
You can also rate the course or learning resource with stars, provided that this feature has been enabled by administrators.
My data
This section is particularly interesting for participants. Under "My data" they find their user-specific information on the course, including the "Passed" status, when they last accessed the course and which groups they are registered in within the course. Here they can also set a bookmark on the course or learning resource. If leaving the course or learning resource is allowed, this is also possible here.
Technical information
The technical information is only visible to the owners of the learning resource. Participants and generally interested persons do not see it.
Information on usage (further learning resources)
