How to set up prerequisite lessons

Do you ever wish your students complete a particular lesson before moving on to the next topic, ensuring they have the necessary foundational knowledge to do well in the course?

Then, set up Prerequisite Lessons.

This way, you ensure that they have the necessary foundational knowledge to do well in the course, and won't get frustrated due to skipping the fundamentals.

When you setup Prerequisite Lessons in your course content, you:

guide your students through a logical progression of lessons, ensuring they build a strong foundation first.

How to View a Prerequisite Lesson

To view how your prerequisite lessons appear to your students, log in to your account => click Courses => View Course => and play the course.

The lessons that you set as prerequisites would have a label on them so that your students can recognize them.

Moreover, prerequisites work by sections, so if a student does not complete the prerequisites of a given section, the lessons in the other sections would be locked.

Also, if a student tries to view these locked lessons, such student will get a message, which would redirect him/her to the prerequisite lessons.

So, follow these simple steps to set up prerequisites on OnlineCourseHost.com and control the order in which students access your course content.

By structuring your online course with prerequisites, you'll empower students to learn effectively and have a more engaging learning experience!

Please note that you can turn prerequisite button on and off as you wish. It is an optional tool.
