Prepare the required assets and resources

Define everything you need to build and deliver the learning experience. Store, or connect, to the assets required to produce the course content.

What are resources?

Resources encompass the people, places, and materials needed to create and deliver any learning experience. This could include anything from a video transcript to an expert or a case study. In Coursensu, all required assets needed to deliver your learning experience can be defined as resources.

Common questions

1. How does Coursensu help track resources for learning projects?

Coursensu allows you to tag and assign resources—people, places, or things—to your designs and content items. This ensures everything required for creating and delivering the learning experience is accounted for and easily managed.

2. Why is tracking resources important in learning design?

Tracking resources helps you stay on top of deliverability, costs, and production timelines. It also supports stakeholder engagement by clearly identifying what needs to be sourced or created for successful project completion.

3. Can I reuse resources across multiple projects in Coursensu?

Once a resource is created within a design, it can be easily reused across multiple content items or sections. This maximises the value of your assets, makes reuse highly visible and reduces the need for redundant creation.

4. How does tracking resources reduce over-production?

By clearly showing what is needed before production begins, Coursensu helps you avoid creating unnecessary content or assets. This saves time, reduces waste, and ensures your efforts are focused on delivering relevant, high-value outcomes.

5. How can resource tracking improve stakeholder engagement?

Coursensu provides a transparent view of all required resources, making it easier to communicate needs with stakeholders. This clarity ensures everyone involved understands their responsibilities and contributes to a smoother project workflow.
