The content editor

Build pages from blocks: type “/” to insert text, media, quizzes, code playgrounds, callouts and more.

Instructors

Dynamic pages are written in a block editor: each piece of content is a block you can move, duplicate or delete.

Insert a block

  1. Click an empty line, or press Enter for a new one.
  2. Type / to open the block menu.
  3. Keep typing to filter, then choose a block and press Enter.

Block families

Text
— paragraph, headings, bulleted and numbered lists, code block.
Media
— image, video, audio, PDF, web embed, link preview.
Interactive
— quiz, code playground, magic (AI) block, math equation, flip card, scenarios, H5P.
Layout
— info and warning callouts, badge, table, divider.

Arrange and format

  • Hover a block to reveal its handle; drag the handle to move it.
  • The block menu offers duplicate, delete and block-specific options.
  • Select text for bold, italic, links and inline code.

Write together in real time

When co-authors open the same page you see each other's cursors, and changes merge automatically.

The editor also has an AI panel for drafting and improving content — see AI tools for teaching.

Wait for the save indicator

Content saves as you edit. Wait for the save indicator before closing the tab.
