Lessons
Lessons is a flexible tool for adding content to your Sakai site.
- If the content you want to share with students is mostly in the form of files or documents -- like PowerPoints, Word docs, PDFs, and so on -- then the Resources tool may be all you need.
- But if you want something a bit fancier -- if you want to create pages with text, graphics, videos, and links to web sites, files or assignments -- then you will want to use the Lessons tool.
- With the Lessons tool you can create subpages to organize your content.
- For example, many instructors create a subpage for each week of the course, so students can find the week's materials and assignments all together in one place.

This handout provides the steps to add Lessons to your course, add Student Pages to Lessons, and optionally, allow students (and instructors) to comment on Student Pages. The handout also reviews how to view student work and add your comments. Note: Both instructor and student comments are visible to all students, as are the student pages.
The handout provides students with step-by-step instructions for how to create your Student Page (and rename it), find and display a YouTube video, create and display a link to a web page, add text and headings to your Student Page, reorder items on your Student Page, find and display an image effectively, and add a link to a document.
