The Design phase

Remember that 70% of the effort is in the design and doing this carefully will ensure that it should be quick and easy to build.

Here’s more detail about what’s required in the Design phase:

• DESIGN:
  • Your existing content might be in ppt, Word docs, lesson plans or even in a combination of these plus your own head!
  • Start by identifying your microteach course ‘topic’ or ‘title’
  • What are the learning objectives?
  • How does your course ‘topic’ then break down into smaller lessons? Establish your course structure.
  • Ensure that you’re covering the ‘what’, the ‘why’ and the ‘how’ of your topic. As an educator your learners won’t have access to you when accessing this content, so make sure you set the context explaining ‘what’ the concept is, and ‘why’ it matters before explaining ‘how’ to apply it.

• Choose your H5P interactions. H5P is built into the LearnPress builder so no external subscription is required. But for ease when you designing you might find it useful to see examples of the variety of H5P interactions available here: https://h5p.org/content-types-and-applications
