The learning path acts as a learning management system (LMS) within Avendoo® and represents therefore a special function. Authors add all learning objects, which should be contained in a course, on it via drag and drop for getting a recommended processing order for the learner. Thus is an overview of the learning process. It is clearly communicated, which contents have to be processed for passing the course.
For adding a complete learning path in the existing learning path authors can create a section. Sections represent a summary of learning objects for guaranteeing an additional clear arrangement.
Furthermore you change already on the learning path placed learning objects by clicking the button Change learning object (see first screenshot) and then you do this change with or without status transfer (see second screenshot).
Basically, you can process the learning objects on the learning path in optional order. There are some options and control items which can define a processing order. It is necessary that control items are more prioritized than options.
Control items
A hurdle manages the editing of the learning path in Avendoo®. The hurdle makes sure that you can choose the learning objects behind the hurdle only after the editing of the mandatory objects before the hurdle. Mandatory objects are all objects on a learning path, which have to be edited or to be passed. To set a hurdle, click on the icon hurdle above the learning path and move it via drag and drop to the favored position.
The functionality of a checkpoint is similar to a hurdle. But the learning objects behind the checkpoint are only available, if the participant has passed a certain certification.
Settings for checkpoints
General characteristics
Certificate
If you want to store a certificate for the checkpoint, here you can select it or you can create a New certificate. The certificate is issued as the checkpoint has been successfully overcome.
Also the task hurdle is a control item on the learning path. You set it like a hurdle and checkpoint. The learner is stopped to continue the working via the task hurdle, until he/she has done a certain task. This task is normally solved outside of Avendoo® and can be set as completed by authors, teamleaders and users, depending on the configuration in the course activation.
The time obstacle operates like a normal hurdle. But the learning objects behind the time obstacle are only available at a certain moment. To set a time obstacle, click on the icon time obstacle above the learning path and move it via drag and drop to the favored position.
Settings for time obstacles
Point of departure
Define the point in time at which the time obstacle starts:
- Activation of the course activation (It is defined in the Course activation wizard→ Options → Automatic time control → Starting date )
- Ending time for course activation (It is defined in the Course activation wizard→ Options → Automatic time control → End date )
- Registration as course participant
- Starting date for the run
- Previous mandatory elements completed (this means the time obstacle will fall after editing all mandatory elements)
Duration
Determine the duration of the obstacle in relation to the starting point. The obstacle disappears as soon as this later point in time is reached.
- Negative value (is automatically activated, if under “Point of departure” the option “Ending time for course activation” is chosen, because the calculation is “backwards” and anticlockwise)
- Days, Hour(s) (0 to 23) and Minutes (0, 15, 30 or 45)
Example
You select under “Point of departure” the option “Ending time for course activation” and enter in the course activation wizard in the field “Starting date” “04/01/2016 10:00 a.m.”. Enter “5 days” in the field “Duration”. The time obstacle makes sure that the learning objects behind the time obstacle only 5 days after starting date of the course activation can be edited. If you also enter “01:45(HH:MM), the learning objects behind the time obstacle are 5 days after the starting date of the course activation and 1 h and 45 minutes after the starting time (10:00 a.m.) available
- In short: Starting point 04/01/2016 at 10:00 a.m.
- Time obstacle is set on 5 days and 01:45 h
- Editing of the learning objects from 04/06/2016 at 11:45 a.m. is possible
Options of the learning objects
Move
Moves the learning object one position up or down via drag and drop.
Settings
Opens the settings of the learning object. Which settings can be done depends on the respective learning object (for further information see advanced characteristics per learning object). Amongst other things you can adjust the designation of the learning object (for example: instructional material) and give the object a new name.
Deactivate/ Activate
The chosen learning object is deactivated or activated.
Delete
Deletes the chosen learning object.
Change
If you click this button, the dialog window Change of learning object opens.
In this dialog window you can select the substitute object via clicking the button Select object. This of the same object type like the origin object. You can show all possible learning object types as list via clicking the arrow. Thus you can change an instructional material with a knowledge test for example. All options of the origin object are transferred as possible, but when the new object type some option doesn’t support, there can be differences.
Also you can select between these two options:
- Do not transfer the status
This option is pre-selected.
If you select this option, users, who have already completed the course, have to edit this new learning object, too, to assess this course as completed. - Transfer the status
If you select this option, users, who have completed the previous learning object, haven’t to edit the new learning object again. This is marked as skipped and course completions persist. - Reset processing time
Users who have already completed the course must also edit the replacement learning object so that the course can get the status “Completed”. In addition, the planned end date is recalculated using the processing time.
If you have selected the new learning object and you have confirmed your selection, you see in the top line of the dialog window, what has changed and additionally the possible successions of the learning object change (see third screenshot).
General characteristics
Block
Select, if the learning object should be Not blocked or Blocked.
If you’ve selected Blocked, you can configure, if the value of Block since and Block until should be Never.
If you’ve selected Date and time when blocking, you can enter a calendar date in the format “DD.MM.JJJJ” and the time in the format “HH:MM”.
Show first
This learning object will be shown directly by opening the course. Only if the first shown learning object is completed, the learning path will be shown.
Expected processing time
Enter the approximate processing time per learning object. The entered time is added above the learning path (Total anticipated processing time) and is visible to the learners.
- Optional
The user can edit this learning object optional. These contents don’t influence the processing status of a course. Thus they don’t influence hurdles and obstacles, too. If you have selected this option, the “Expected processing time” won’t be shown in the reports, for example “Training inventory entries”, but the sum is shown on “My Learning Place” of the registered user.
- Mandatory
Via this option the processing of the learning object is mandatory for the user. Thus an object with the option “Mandatory” contributes to the overall graduation of the course.
- Pass
The user has to complete this learning object successfully for getting the overall graduation. Example: If we speak about knowledge tests this means that a fixed passing grade has to be taken for getting a knowledge test passed.
Mode of expected processing time (only for the learning objects Knowledge tests, Instructional materials, Events and Web-based trainings)
Specify whether the information from the learning content metadata should be used or if data is to be entered manually. Select between these options:
- Manually
By selecting this option, you got the standard. This will lead to the fact that the meta data of the corresponding learning object will not be transferred to the field Expected processing time. Thus you can enter a value in the field Expected processing time. - From metadata
By selecting this option, this will lead to transfer the value for the expected processing time from the learning objects. This is the default for newly added content with meta data. Thus the field Expected processing time is locked for entering a value in the Course wizard.
Select certificate
If you have created a certificate for the learning object, you can select it via this button. Furthermore you can create a New certificate after clicking the button Select. The certificate is displayed for the user, when the learning object was successfully processed by the user.
Certificate content list
Set this check mark, whether you want this learning content to be included in the content list of the course certificate (Default setting: not visible). Furthermore you can enter an alternative text for the title of the course certificate in the field Changed designation.

Display types
You can select the learning path display on the sub tab Structure of the tab Parameters in the Course wizard. By this you define how the learning path will be displayed for this course.
The most used display types are:
Learning path with line breaks
By using the learning path with line breaks you will see the learning objects as tiles side by side. Depending on screen size these tiles automatically make a break to next line to show an optimum number of learning objects per row. Thus this learning path is highly recommended for display on different end devices as PC, tablet or smartphone.
The learning path can be shown with photos, grafics or icons.
Additionally, the user can use the button Current learning position to get to that position of the learning path last edited by.
Vertical learning path
The vertical learning path represents a continuous line from top to bottom. The learning objects are automatically placed on left and right side. The learning objects are arranged on the left side if you use smaller end devices.
You can insert images on this learning path type, too.
If you want to put a stress on graphic display, we recommend the learning path with line breaks or the horizontal learning path, because the arrangement of learning objects will be better convenient.
Additionally, the user can use the button Current learning position to get to that position of the learning path last edited by.
Learning path with status text
Select the display type Learning path or Learning path with status text, if you want to tell a story via the learning path pictures.
There can be displayed an Avatar for example, which moves from left to the right side, depending on the progress of the learning path.
Caused by the connected picture world this learning path will be not wrapped on mobile devices but a scroll bar will be generated.
If you want to use your Learning world many times, we recommend a learning path with line breaks.
Graphic elements of learning path
The design of the learning path can be adjusted individually in Avendoo®. At this point we show you various status in the city design. Further examples how the learning path can be designed you find here: Examples for the learning path design. Click on the download button for downloading the graphical elements as zip file.

Hurdle
Learning objects behind the hurdle can be chosen only after processing the mandatory objects before the hurdle, excepting events behind a hurdle. Thus you can register at an event and participate this event, if you haven’t processed all mandatory learning units before this hurdle. Even the condition isn’t met, it is possible to register to events, which are behind the hurdle.
There are two functions for events, which can require to edit or complete after the hurdle:
– The author can set a deadline in the Event wizard. Until this deadline all prerequisites have to be fulfilled.
– The author can stop the registration to an event date before the qualification in the Course wizard.
If a learning object is deactivated by a hurdle, you see a description.

Checkpoint
Participants can reach the learning objects behind the checkpoint, if they have got a certain certification. A checking point checks, if a certification in Avendoo®, for example from a previous course, is achieved. Even the condition isn’t met, it is possible to register to events, which are behind the checkpoint.
If a learning object is deactivated by a checkpoint, you see a description. Example: You can proceed only, if you have the following certificate:
Task hurdle
The participant can process the learning objects behind a task hurdle, if the participant has completed a certain task.
If a learning object is deactivated by a task hurdle, you see a description. Example: Do all tasks.
