Space

What is it? §

In Allele, a space is usually synonymous with a course or a section of a course, but it can also be used to group trainings, workshop content, continuing education, and more. Each space in Allele will have a unique roster, so each time you bring on a new cohort of students, you will find yourself creating new spaces.

Spaces are broken down into cases and then phases and navigating through all of the content in a space may span the course of an entire academic semester or term.

Did You Know?

• If we use a book as an illustrative example:
  • a space would be the book itself
  • a case would be a chapter in the book
  • a phase would be a page within a chapter

Why is it important? §

• Spaces in Allele are important because they group together course content in a common area. Within the space, course authors (Educators, Instructional Designers, TAs, etc.) can create and sequence educational content that will ultimately be used by students.

Example §

Here’s what a space may look like if you were an educator at a university:

• Vet Med 101
• Computer Science 301
• Information Security Training
