👥 Add an In-Person Module

Integrate a synchronous event (classroom training, virtual classroom) into your Didask course and associate resources to prepare or support your learners.

Written by Océane

⏱️ The Essentials in 3 Minutes

• The in-person module is added like any other module, by selecting the "In-person" type at creation.
• It can contain information or exercise granules: preparatory resources, materials to project during the session, post-training activities.
• The introduction page lets you enter the date, location, video link, trainer, and estimated duration.
• Attendance tracking can be activated to allow learners to sign off their own attendance.


🧠 Understanding the Pedagogical Value of the In-Person Module

Learning science shows that consolidation requires spaced repetition over time. A single in-person session, however well run, produces little lasting effect if it is not prepared in advance and followed by practical application. By integrating in-person training into a Didask course, you can activate prior knowledge before the session, focus room time on what requires human interaction, and offer consolidation exercises afterwards.


⚙️ How to Create an In-Person Module

  1. In your project, enter the module title and select the "In-person" type.

  2. Hover over the module you created and click "Edit content".

  3. Edit the introduction page to fill in the session information.

  4. Add granules if needed (optional).

💡 Granules added to an in-person module act as resources associated with the session. They can be used at different moments in the course:

  • Before the session: preparation activities or content to read in advance.

  • During the session: materials to project or complete as a group.

  • After the session: consolidation exercises or reference resources.


📋 Information Available on the Introduction Page

From the introduction page, you can fill in:

  • A specific background image

  • The estimated duration

  • The date

  • The location and/or video link (for a virtual classroom)

  • An introductory text

  • The trainer's name and display

  • The trainer's email and phone number

  • The attendance tracking option: allows learners to confirm their own attendance. Learn more about attendance.
