Mobile Ed Course Questions

1. I liked how resources had the visual filers that showed where to start and stop readings of different assigned books for the course. Was that done using a Note File that we downloaded in the Faithlife group, or could that also be done using a Reading Plan in Logos (especially the new Reading Plans that have multiple sessions). When I start teaching, I would like to include some form of document in a Faithlife group I could share with students that outlines their reading assignments in Logos editions similar to how it functioned in Mobile Ed. I can also include page numbers and info for those using printed editions or different electronic editions, but the extra added Logos functionality would get students using Logos more which I'd like to see.

What you are seeing isn't a visual filter but the functionality of the Reading Plan built into the course linked to the corresponding resource, just as if you were to build a Reading Plan yourself. 

You can also find Notes Documents for many of the courses on the course specific Faithlife page. Download a copy of those and you'll have one note file inside of Logos with all of the reading for that course. It's pretty nice. You can still use the Note file even if you no longer have the course. 

2. If I generate Topic Guides on specific topics and use the copy URL, could I place those in a Personal Book Syllabus file, Professor's Notes, or even link to them in the courseware engine where students could click on that link and run a Topic Guide on those specific topics? Since I'll be dealing with theological/doctrinal terms throughout the course I'll be teaching, in addition to the required reading, I may want to create some links to some Topic Guides in Logos on certain topics or terms so students can take their learning further in the event they wish to investigate a topic or term further.

Absolutely you can. For example, here is a link to a Topic Guide on the Passover. logos4:Guide;t=Topic_Guide;ref=bk.$25Passover

Simply run the guide you want, then after it has been ran, click on the Resource Panel (square to the left of the resource) and then click the Copy Location as URL link. Then paste away. Its that easy. 

Sounds great. I'll build a test Reading Plan sometime and see how it goes, and I could probably share that with a Faithlife group and have students that want to follow along connect with it.

Sounds good about the Topic Guide links as well. I thought that's how those were done but wasn't sure. I guess those could be done for searches as well?

Thanks for the info!
