Before you can add lessons, steps, modules, and all the readings, videos, discussions, and other activities that will make up your course Path, you'll need to create a Path to upload your teaching material into. Ready to start designing a Path that you or others will teach? 

Create a Path for a single Cohort to take

When you first log into your Pathwright Learning Space, you'll see your Home page. The Teach tab will list specific Cohorts that you are teaching and you can also use the Teach tab to create new Paths and Cohorts. 

  1. Go to your Teach tab on your Home page and select the "New Path" button in the upper right corner.

  2. Click into the first text box and type in a Path name to create a new Path.

  3. In the lower text box, enter the name you would like to give your Cohort and click the "Create" button.

Here are those steps again:

Select "New Cohort."

Type your Path name into the first text box. Type a name for your first Cohort into the second text box. Select the "Create" button to finish creating your Path and first Cohort.

The Cohort for your new Path will be listed on your Teach tab. Select the Cohort. Your Cohort will open to the Source Path, where you will begin to build a learning Path for your learners. We refer to the content portion of a course as a "Path."

You can edit the Path details by selecting the options menu (...) underneath the Path name, then selecting “Configure Path." You can open the Cohort settings by selecting "Configure Cohort" from the same menu.

Create a Path that multiple Cohorts will take

You will also have the option to create Paths from your Design tab. By building out the Source Path first, you will be able to publish multiple customizable Cohorts that you or others can teach. 

  1. Under the "Design" tab, select the button that says “New path.” 

  2. Name your Path, then select “Create.” 

The new Path will be listed on your Design tab. Select the Source Path to begin building a learning path for your learners. 

Once your Source Path is built, you can create multiple Cohorts: unique offerings of the material with separate class rosters, discussions, schedules, pricing, etc. Find out how to create a new Cohort. 

Need to add yourself as the Teacher of one or more of the Cohorts? Here's how to set yourself as the teacher.
