Creating a Microlearning thread

Microlearning threads can be created by clicking the Add button toward the top of the page. This will open a page that allows the admin to edit the settings of the new thread; of these, only a unique name is required.

Once a Microlearning thread is created, the admin is returned to the Microlearning threads page, and may take any of a number of actions relating to the thread(s).

Actions

Each microlearning thread has the actions Edit thread, Manage nuggets, Thread schedule, Manage thread users, Clone thread and Delete thread. These are found in the Actions column on the right of the page.

The Edit thread button allows the admin to change the same details as when creating a Microlearning thread.

Manage thread users will take the admin to the Manage thread users page.

The Thread schedule is the date from (and also, optionally, to) which the thread is enabled.

The Manage nuggets is where much of the main functionality of the Microlearning thread is established, as described in the Microlearning nuggets section below.
