Definition: Introduction Material
Introduction Material is a supporting content feature (general category) in LearnCove that allows creators to attach files or media to activity questions (distinguishing feature). This material appears before the quiz question, providing learners with additional context, background, or guidance.
Key details:
A maximum of 3 files can be uploaded per question.
Supported formats include documents, images, videos, or other media.
If a file has a preview available, it will be shown; otherwise, the file can be downloaded.
This feature helps users prepare for the question and ensures they have the necessary resources to answer effectively.
