Lesson # 001:
[name of lesson]


Template S - This simplified template uses "S"ound effects, hilights, hints and pop-up alerts to give the user instant feedback about the right or wrong answers. These "Instant Interactions" can be anywhere in your lesson. In the quiz portion, you can arrange matching, essay, multiple-choice, yes-no, true-false quiz questions however you like: it uses sound effects to provide instant audio feedback, and the questions and answers will also be emailed to the instructor. Read through this sample lesson to get an idea of how it works.

How to use this template: First, install the free program "NoteTab Light" (www.notetab.com). If you're running Windows XP, Windows Vista or Windows 7, login as administrator and copy "HTML-e.clb" from the [your login]Agape-Biblia\plugins\development folder to C:\Program Files\NoteTab Light\Libraries. You can rename "HTML-e.clb" to replace the file by the name "HTML.clb" if you like.

Then in NoteTab Light, open Lesson-template-S.htm (this file) and press Ctrl+Shift+S to save it with the new name of the lesson it will become. (You can also use the empty file "Lesson-template-S-e.htm" instead of this file, so you don't have to delete these instructions and all the HTML examples each time you rename the file.) Then highlight the "001" in the TITLE tag at the top, press Ctrl+R and enter the new lesson number to Rename the four occurences of the lesson number. Also rename "[name of lesson]" in two places.

Next, simply begin inserting your lesson material, either by the copy-and-paste method if you have already written your lesson in a word-processor program such as MS-Word, or you can write the lesson directly in your HTML document. Use our custom NoteTab Clip-lib scripts to easily create the HTML code for interactions and quiz questions.

Every quiz question, though, must be inside the quiz FORM, and must have a unique number (hopefully starting with 1 and ascending!) so that your browser will associate the answers with the appropriate question. In NoteTab Light, press F4 and select "HTML-e" from the "Libraries" bar on the bottom of the screen (if you have configured NoteTab under "View" to show the "Libraries" bar), or in the upper-left part of the frame that appears, in order to launch these customized Clip-lib scripts in your lesson.

It is VERY important to use a WIDE VARIETY of "Instant Interactions" and "Quiz Questions" in each lesson! Be creative! Use them often: enliven every "screenful" of lesson content with an interaction or a question. Otherwise students become bored and you lose them!

Well, here we are in the "quiz" section of the lesson! Now, open this file - "Lesson-template-S.htm" - in NotePad Light and take a look at the HTML source code. Pretty wierd, isn't it?! I remember how strange HTML seemed to me the first time I saw it, about 10 years ago. But never fear: our custom NoteTab Clip-lib scripts will help you get accustomed to it quickly and easily. To include Bible refs in your lessons, copy & paste links from 'biblia02\lichnye\Putissyl.htm' and fill in chapter & verse: for example, Romans 8:28.
