Lessons in Cikgo are called stories; rightly so because stories in Cikgo can branch, and students can choose their own adventure at their own pace through it.
Stories consist of blocks of content and action. A block represents a point in a lesson. Its content establishes a knowledge base, i.e., something you teach to your student. Its action is a form of feedback to check the student’s understanding of said content.
Based on its action, blocks can be chained together to form a learning map with multiple pathways to mastery of a particular chapter, lesson, or topic. A story can be as big or focused as you want it to be.
Every submission of an action leads to a different path in the story. This way, your students can have their own personalised learning experience, at their own pace, through your stories.
How the concept of blocks of content and action flows from the Storyboard to what students see in their chat rooms.
Contents in Cikgo are rich texts. You have all the formatting tools you’re familiar with in the Storyboard. Additionally, you can paste YouTube links in the content editor and it’ll automatically turn into an embedded video player.
