Publishing a module

Support Article: Publishing a Module in Lt

Beware updating a lesson after students have started it

If you update a lesson and then publish it, only students who have not yet started the lesson will see the updates. Students who have already started the lesson will continue to see the old version. Therefore, before publishing a lesson, be certain it is the final version. If you want to make all students see the latest version, you’ll need to reset the progress of those that have already started the original version. This is a critical process that can’t be undone, so do so with consideration.

Publishing checklist

See here for a more in-depth checklist before publishing and making content available to students. Some key points to note are:

  • The content is up-to-date and ready to be accessed by students
  • You’ve decided if the lesson will be published individually or in a module
  • The lesson has a poster (thumbnail) icon
  • Once published, the lesson is available to students at the correct date(s) and time(s).
    • I’ve selected ‘Student View’ and can see the content I expected is available to the students.

Before publishing content, consider if the content is best published as a stand-alone lesson or as one of a series of related lessons in a module. For example, a lesson introducing the course would likely be best published by as a stand-alone lesson. However, a pre-lab quiz lesson that precedes an associated lab would be best published within a module.

Note: It’s very important to only publish a lesson either individually or within a module. If a lesson is published both as an individual lesson and a lesson within a module, students can start and complete them separately.

Publishing checklist

See here for a more in-depth checklist before publishing and making content available to students. Some key points to note are:

  • The content is up-to-date and ready to be accessed by students
  • You’ve decided if the lesson will be published individually or in a module
  • The lesson has a poster (thumbnail) icon
  • Once published, the lesson is available to students at the correct date(s) and time(s).
    • I’ve selected ‘Student View’ and can see the content I expected is available to the students.

Before publishing content, consider if the content is best published as a stand-alone lesson or as one of a series of related lessons in a module. For example, a lesson introducing the course would likely be best published by as a stand-alone lesson. However, a pre-lab quiz lesson that precedes an associated lab would be best published within a module.

Note: It’s very important to only publish a lesson either individually or within a module. If a lesson is published both as an individual lesson and a lesson within a module, students can start and complete them separately.

Supporting your Lt Journey

Meet our Customer Success Managers (CSMs) - dedicated to helping you transition to and succeed with our online learning platform Lt.

CSM overview with Arianna Boulet

As CSMs, we provide ongoing, world-class support to help you transition to Lt in an easy, stress-free manner.

We work proactively with our customers throughout the Lt onboarding process to better understand their needs and learning objectives when it comes to teaching. From here we can work alongside our customers from the beginning to ensure that each individual is achieving their goals and making the most of Lt’s innovations.

Meet your local CSM

Arianna Boulet

Arianna Boulet (North America)

I graduated in 2011 with a Bachelor of Science in Integrative Physiology from the University of Colorado. As a CSM, I love working with passionate instructors who truly care about their students. Being able to help such innovative educators makes loving my job that much easier!

My favorite Lt feature is how easy it is to author. I think it is important for instructors to be able to customize the content to fit around their course and learning objectives, and Lt makes this very easy for them.

Gabrielle Leite

Gabrielle Leite (South America)

I’m a Biologist graduated from UNESP- Rio Claro and I did my master’s degree in Comparative Physiology at UFSCar- São Carlos. I started working at ADInstruments in 2012 as an Application Scientist and since then I have taken on a more supportive role for our customers in Brazil and Latin America.

What I like most about Lt is its authoring tool and how easy it is to use! I love being able to offer educators a quality solution to the problems they face every day.

Liam Farley

Liam Farley (Australasia)

I did my undergraduate and postgraduate studies in Physiology before joining the ADI team in 2015. What I enjoy most about being a CSM is working with a customer to help them overcome a particular pain point.

I love that Lt does a lot of the heavy lifting for educators, in the sense that it has so much quality content already available.

Tom Broughton

Tom Broughton (Europe)

I graduated in 2008 with a BSc in Chemistry, and joined ADInstruments’ Support Team in October 2009, assisting customers in both research and education, but I have focused solely on education support since 2013, including providing support for LabStation and Lt, as well as their associated hardware, and haven’t looked back since!

In terms of Lt, I love the intuitiveness (and speed) of the software as well as the ease of authoring - it’s a huge time saver for educators.

Lauren Frank

Lauren Frank (North America)

I graduated from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 2015 with a degree in Biomedical Engineering (Pre-Med focus). During my first few years at ADI, I worked as both a Biomedical Sales Engineer for our research team and later became our senior Technical Support and Training Engineer for both research and education.

I consider myself a “lifelong learner” and I love being surrounded by like minded individuals. The passion and ingenuity of our Lt community continues to inspire me on a daily basis!

Hear what some of our current Lt customers have to say...

“Customer support is excellent! They follow up with you until making sure the problem is resolved. Thank you ADInstruments!”

- Associate Professor Susy Choy, California Medical Innovations Institute, USA.

“Our CSM is amazing, they reply very promptly (sometimes within minutes) with all the info I need, often it comes with screenshots to help with their explanation”

- Heather Kesby, Biological Sciences, University of Leeds, UK.

“With Lt’s ongoing and personalized customer service, we’re always supported to ensure the platform is working for us”

- Associate Professor Diane Kenwright, Head of Department, Pathology and Molecular Medicine, University of Otago, Wellington, NZ.

“I didn’t know customer service like this existed until I started using Lt”

- Bronwen Mayo, Lecturer in Biosciences School of Pharmacy and Medical Sciences, University of South Australia, AUS.
