Create a New Card

Once you have welcomed your learners with an introduction, you need to create the next step in their journey. In Oppia, you can do this by linking an interaction (like a button) to a brand-new card.

Link a Button to a New Card

Once you create the introductory content and add the “Continue” button, you can now design your lesson.

1. Find the [When the button is clicked] configuration panel.

2. Leave the field blank under the heading Oppia tells the learner, since transition text is usually not needed for a simple “Continue” action.

3. Under the And afterwards, directs the learner to… dropdown menu, select A New Card Called….

4. Enter a descriptive name for your new card (e.g., “Lesson Step 1”) and select Save Destination.

5. The new card will now appear in the Exploration Overview panel on the right side of the editor.

6. Select the card title in this panel to jump into that card and begin adding your lesson content.
