Creating a course
This page shows you how to build a course in Zinye Learn, from an empty shell to ready-to-publish.
Create the course
Section titled “Create the course”- Open Courses and click + New.
- Give it a title, a short description, and (optionally) a cover image.
- Save.
Add chapters and lessons
Section titled “Add chapters and lessons”A course is organised as chapters, each holding lessons:
- Inside the course, add a chapter (for example Getting started).
- Add lessons to the chapter.
- For each lesson, choose its content:
- A video (embed or upload)
- Text with images and formatting
- A quiz or assignment for assessment
- Order chapters and lessons so they flow in the right sequence.
Keep lessons short and focused — one idea each. A learner is far more likely to finish ten short lessons than three long ones.
Preview and publish
Section titled “Preview and publish”- Preview the course to see exactly what a learner sees.
- When it’s ready, publish it so it appears in the catalogue and people can enrol.
You can keep editing after publishing — add lessons or fix typos any time.
