E-learning
E-learning is a combination of online education and assessment. Educators can create content with text and images and questions can be used to check the understanding of the student. E-learning can be used to inform employees or new hires about company procedures or to check compliance against safety procedures. The page below shows a basic example of how text, images and questions can be combined.
Page definition
The page starts with the name of the module, in this case Meteorology
and then has a markdown text section between the ---
identifiers. With markdown you can specify different font sizes, tables, character formatting and images. An overview of markdown commands can be found in the Markdown Guide. In the example below the #
annotation is used to set the level 1 font size and the **
annotation is used to display the letter L in boldface. The image annotation is used to insert an image. The part between (
and )
can either be a link like https://mysite/images/weather.png
or the name of a file that has been uploaded.

west of Norway and east of Sweden depicted by **L**. The fronts are displayed as blue, red and
purple lines.

[
a:0 Cold front
b:0 Warm front
c:1 Occlusion
d:0 Trough
]
-->
q2:Some question?
-->
q3:Another question?
In this example each question has a reference and a name. For example, if the user has answered the first question with b
the parameter q1
is set to b
. The annotation -->
is used to create a new page for each question.
