8.1 iLAP Section Arrangement

If you are subscribed to IDEALS, you can convert your completed learning design into a practical online course on the IDEALS Learning Management Platform (iLAP). (Click here to subscribe!)

Figure 8.1: iLAP Section Arrangement

We offer two modes for the conversion: Curriculum Component (CC) mode and Lesson mode.

• You can switch between the two modes at any time by clicking the button in the top-right corner, without losing any data.
• In CC mode, the system automatically creates course sections based on your curriculum components, so no additional effort is required.
• In Lesson mode, you manually build course sections, arranging learning tasks into individual lessons—similar to a traditional lesson plan.
  

Demonstration of the Lesson Mode

By clicking the button next to "Pre-class" "In-class" or "After-class", a pop-up window will appear, allowing you to view the created curriculum components and learning tasks.

You can select the appropriate learning task(s) by clicking the checkbox in the top-right corner of each task. Then, click the "LINK SELECTED TASK(S)" button to assign the selected tasks to the targeted lesson.

Revising and Rearranging a Task

Below is a sample overrun lesson. We will need to revise the task details or move the task to a different stage or lesson.

Figure 8.5: A sample Overrun Lesson

1. Alert for Overrun Lesson Plan     Figure 5.56: Alert for Overrun Lesson Plan   Only tasks assigned as in-class activities are counted toward the "Designed In-Lesson Time". If the total time for in-class activities exceeds the 35-minute limit set in the Course Information section at the beginning, you will see "80/35 min" displayed in red as a reminder, along with a button next to the In-Class Session.

2.  Rearranging a Task   To address the lesson overrun issue, there are several ways to resolve this. First, you can reduce the duration of each task. However, this may not fully solve the problem. Instead, consider breaking tasks into subtasks that can be completed before or after the lesson. You can return to the CC section in LDS to revise the task design and move tasks to another stage or even to a different lesson.  Please refer to the introduction below for instructions on how to move a task in the lesson builder.   Figure 8.6: Moving a Task (1)    By clicking the button, a pop-up window will appear, allowing you to move the task to a stage in a different lesson.   Figure 8.7: Moving a Task (2)   Tasks can be moved to a specific stage in the targeted lesson by clicking either an empty block ("Pre-class", "In-Class", or "After-class") or an existing task name.

*Please repeat the mentioned steps to complete the lesson plan.
