LDS ASSISTANT

When creating a learning design in the LDS, you will work through multiple phases: course level, curriculum component level, and task level. The LDS Assistant provides instructions and tips tailored to your current phase and acts as an interface for accessing the LDS Pattern Library, which offers well-defined templates for you to use in each phase. Further details about the LDS Pattern Library will be introduced in the next section.

The Information Window is located in the top right corner. It displays the key information you have inputted or visualizes your learning design.
