How to assign library content to learners

Summary

KC Library lets you deliver library courses to an individual learner by assigning them a learning path. This article explains how a learning path built from library courses is assigned to a single student, so the content reaches that learner directly.

Introduction

In KC Library, courses are organized into a learning path that groups the content a learner should work through. Assigning that learning path to a specific student is what connects the chosen library content to the person who needs to complete it.

Administrators are the primary users of this flow. They decide which learning path applies, identify the student, and confirm the assignment so the learner sees the content in their own view.

Key Concepts

  • Learning path: A structured collection of library courses that defines what a learner should complete and in what order.
  • Library course: A course drawn from KC Library that becomes part of the learning path being assigned.
  • Student: The individual learner who receives the assignment.
  • Assignment: The action of connecting a learning path to a specific student so the content appears for that learner.
  • Individual assignment: Assigning a learning path to one learner directly, rather than to a group or an entire portal.

Steps to Follow

Prepare the learning path

Confirm that the learning path you intend to assign already contains the library courses the learner should complete. The learning path is the unit that gets assigned, so its contents determine what the student receives.

Identify the student

Determine which learner should receive the content and select them. The assignment targets one individual, so make sure you have the right person selected before you continue.

Assign the learning path to the student

Assign the prepared learning path to the identified student. This attaches the learning path to that single student rather than to a group or an entire portal, so the content is delivered to just that learner.

Confirm the assignment reached the learner

Verify that the assignment was created for the intended student. Once assigned, the learning path and its library courses are associated with that learner so they can begin working through the content.

Conclusion

Assigning a learning path to an individual student is how KC Library gets specific library content to a specific learner. By preparing the learning path, identifying the student, and completing the assignment, you ensure the right content reaches the right person.
