In this recipe, we are going to deal with another side of the cube as well as another topic. We are dealing with "Literature and Revenge" and we are going to associate three English classic novels. So let's get ready and Moodle it!
Associate has to do with the relationship between the topic and another items with similar characteristics—in other words, how the topic is composed and where it belongs. Therefore, in this recipe we are going to deal with three books: The Man in the Iron Mask and The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexander Dumas and The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux.
We are going to enter the course and select the Weekly outline section where we want to add this activity so that we can design it. In this case, we are going to carry out the activity in Online text and we are going to insert a table with only one row and one column so as to simulate our cube. Follow these steps:
- Click on Add an activity and select Online text option.
- Complete the Assignment name block.
- Complete the Description block.
- Insert a Table. Click on the table icon to insert a table.
- Complete the Rows and Cols blocks with number 1, as shown in the next screenshot:
- Click on OK.
- Write the word ASSOCIATE in the table, as shown in the next screenshot:
- Complete the other blocks the way you want to.
- Click on Save and return to course.
The activity that we have just designed is ready for our students to edit their submission. In this case, we have provided the students with the name of items that they have to associate with the topic. You do not need to do that. You can always guide the writing of your students the way you want to according to the guidelines that you set. In each recipe, I think it is helpful to guide them with each angle of the cube. This will help the students to work alone and without difficulties with the cube by itself in the last recipe.
