How to Upload a Course

The core of your educational platform is the Learning Management System (LMS). Arzavo uses a structured Course -> Module -> Lesson hierarchy to keep complex curriculums organized.

The Hierarchy Explained

  • Course: The main subject (e.g., "Advanced Mathematics").
  • Module: A chapter or section within the course (e.g., "Calculus 101").
  • Lesson: The actual content material (e.g., "Video: Introduction to Derivatives").

Step 1: Creating the Course Shell

  1. In your Admin Dashboard, go to Courses > All Courses.
  2. Click Create Course.
  3. Fill in the Title, Description, Featured Image, and Pricing (Free or Paid).
  4. Save the course. It is now basically an "empty shell".

Step 2: Adding Modules

  1. Click on your newly created course to enter the Course Builder view.
  2. Click Add Module.
  3. Give the module a name (e.g., "Week 1", "Chapter 1"). Repeat this for as many chapters as you need.

Step 3: Uploading Lessons (Videos & Assets)

  1. Under a specific Module, click Add Lesson.
  2. Choose your lesson type:
    • Video: Upload an MP4 or embed a YouTube / Vimeo link.
    • Document: Upload a PDF or Word document for reading material.
    • Text: A rich text article directly on the platform.
  3. Add any downloadable attachments (like worksheets) in the Attachments tab.
  4. Click Save & Publish Lesson.

Pro Tip: Drip Content

You can configure your Modules to "Drip" over time. For example, you can set "Module 2" to only unlock 7 days after the student enrolls in the course, ensuring they don't rush through the material.
