The Lessons tab is the first of the three tab's for Monitoring an Individual sequence.

At the top of the screen, the Title Area displays the Name and Sequence Description. These are either read from the LAMS sequence itself, or can be entered by Monitors when the sequence is created.

Beneath the Title area, the Status Area displays the:

• Status: Whether the lesson is Started, Suspended, or Archived.
  • Started sequences are available for learners to participate in.
  • Suspendedsequences are sequences that have been disabled by a monitor. New Learner's cannot access disabled sequences, but Learners aklready participating in the sequence can progress.
  • Archived sequence do not appear on Learner's 'Groups' screens, but are available for Monitors to view.
• *Learners:*This area shows the number of Learner's who have started the sequence so far, and the total number of learners who are able to access the sequence.
  • Note that Learners does NOT indicate the number of Learners online at this moment, but rather how many Learners have joined the sequence since it was started.
• Learner URL: Displays the Direct Lesson Launch URL for Learners.
  • This will only be displayed if your LAMS Administrator has enabled the Direct Lesson Launch feature.
• Class: This displays the Class selected as the Learners for this sequence.

The Manage Lesson Area allows you to modify several sequence functions:

• View Learners displays a pop-up menu with the Names and Logins of all Learners who can access the sequence.
• Edit Class allows the addition of Learners to the sequence. (Note that you cannot Remove a Learner's access to a sequence if they were specified when the sequence was started.)
• Select Status allows the Monitor to Disable, Archive, Enable or Delete a sequence.
• Start displays the exact date and time at which the sequence was started. (Based on the System time of the LAMS Server.)
• There is also a toggle to allow or disallow Learners to Export their Portfolios.

The Required Tasks Area displays Monitor tasks for a particular sequence, such as assigning Groups, choosing Scribes or opening Gates.

The Sequence tab is the second of the three Monitoring tabs. It provides a "sequence-based" view of Learner Progression through a Live Session - the Sequence display is identical to the sequence layout in the Authoring environment.

Learner Icons

Learners are represented by small white icons on the individual activity Icons. Learner positions can be updated by clicking the "Refresh" button in the top Right-hand corner of the screen. The icons are displayed at the current Learner position regardless of whether or not the Learner is Online or Offline.

You can Force Move a Learner to a specific activity in the sequence by Clicking-and-Dragging their icon to a specific activity. You can also move a Learner to the end of the sequence by Dragging them to the small grey door in the bottom-left of the Sequence tab.

The Learners tab provides a "learner-based" view of learner progression through a live sequence session.
Learners are presented in a layered horizontal view of their progress through activities. The status of each activity is shown as follows:

• Blue Circles indicate activities which have been completed by the learner.
• Red Squares indicate the current position of the learner in the sequence (ie: the activity they are currently viewing)
• and Green Triangles represent activities not yet reached.
  These colors and symbols are the same as used for the learner progress bar.

The key property of the Learner tab is that for any learner activity, the monitor can click on the relevant symbol, which will then show the learner's last view of this activity in a new window - this allows monitors to observe the progress of individual learners and groups within each activity.
