Canvas Image Mapper System

When viewing the lessons offline, the images will be loaded from local files instead of Canvas URLs. To do this, a custom script is used along with a json data file to map the image names to the IDs that the Canvas compatible HTML uses.

For more information on how to set this up, please see the documentation here.

Lesson Template

To maintain consistency across all lesson pages, this project includes a standardized template system. The template includes:

Template Files:

To create a new lesson page, simply copy the template, rename it following the m[#]-[type]-[topic].html convention, replace all placeholders, and add your content between the designated markers.

Interactive Activities

Several modules include interactive activities designed to enhance student engagement and understanding. These activities utilize JavaScript and CSS to provide a dynamic learning experience.
