Blocks are reusable, pre-defined pieces of content in CourseArc. You build instructional pages by arranging and customizing these blocks, ensuring consistency across pages, modules, and entire courses.
Each block is intentionally designed to be:
- instructionally sound
- visually polished and professional
- flexible for a variety of activities and use cases
- interactive and engaging
- fully accessible
- responsive across all devices
The Add Block form includes more than 40 blocks types to help you create rich, effective course content. For more information about CourseArc blocks, see How do I add a block to a page?.
This example shows the Edit Page view featuring:
