If you\u2019ve ever authored a lesson in the CL-150 lesson authoring tool, you\u2019re probably familiar with this process: add your text > select vocab > edit vocab > select learning activities.<\/p>\n

But what if your lesson isn\u2019t based on a text? Or you don\u2019t want to add vocab?<\/p>\n

The latest update gives you significantly more flexibility in what lessons you make\u2014and how to make them.<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can now choose from three lesson templates (with many more on the way!):<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u201cBlank\u201d Lesson<\/li>\n
  2. Text Passage<\/li>\n
  3. Vocab Items<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The vocab lesson template requires only vocabulary to get started, whereas the reading lesson requires only a text source.<\/p>\n

    The \u201cblank\u201d lesson is template-less\u2014a blank slate that you can use to make any lesson you\u2019d like, based on any source (text, audio, video, grammar table, etc.)<\/p>\n
