2. About Learning Lists
Learning Lists are the best
way to group and organize
educational resources that
need to be shown as
having a direct
relationship. The example
shown is a complete
curriculum. Use Learning
Lists for small lessons, full
curricula, and everything in
between.
Learning lists can be
created across subjects
and levels.
