Use the learning and training topic types to provide the instructional content, according to the needs identified by the learning goals and objectives.
3.3.1.1 learningOverview
A Learning Overview topic identifies the learning objectives, includes other information helpful to the learner, such as prerequisites, duration, intended audience, and can include information and strategies that seeks to gain attention and stimulate recall of prior learning.
3.3.1.2 learningOverviewbody
The <learningOverviewbody> element is the main body-level element in a learningOverview topic. A learningOverviewbody has a very specific structure, with the following elements in this order: <lcIntro>, <lcAudience>, <lcDuration>, <lcPrereqs>, <lcObjectives>, <lcResources>, followed by one or more <section> elements. Each of the learningOverviewbody sections are optional.
3.3.1.3 learningContent
A Learning Content topic provides the learning content itself, and enables direct use of content from DITA task, concept, and reference topics, as well as additional content of any topic type that supports specific objectives declared in the Learning Overview topic type.
3.3.1.4 learningContentbody
The <learningContentbody> element is the main body-level element in a learningContent topic.
3.3.1.5 learningSummary
A Learning Summary recaps and provides context for the achievement or accomplishment of learning objectives, provides guidance to reinforce learning and long-term memory, and may pose questions to enhance encoding and verification of the learning content.
3.3.1.6 learningSummarybody
The <learningSummarybody> element is the main body-level element in a learningSummary topic.
3.3.1.7 learningAssessment
A Learning Assessment presents questions or interactions that measure progress, encourage recollection, and stimulate reinforcement of the learning content, and can be presented before the content as a pre-assessment or as a post-assessment test. The interactions use a sub-set of the Question-Test Interoperability (QTI) specification, implemented as a DITA domain specialization.
3.3.1.8 learningAssessmentbody
The <learningAssessmentbody> element is the main body-level element in a learningAssessment topic.
3.3.1.9 learningPlan
A Learning Plan topic describes learning needs and goals, instructional design models, task analyses, learning taxonomies, and other information necessary to the lesson planning process.
3.3.1.10 learningPlanbody
The <learningPlanbody> element is the main body-level element in a learningPlan topic.
3.3.1.11 learningBase
The learningBase topic type is not used to deliver any actual learning content, but instead provides a set of common elements for use in the other more specific learning content types: learningOverview,learningContent, learningSummary, learningAssessment, and learningPlan.
3.3.1.12 learningBasebody
The <learningBasebody> element is the main body-level element in a learningBase topic. The learningBase topic provides a set of base elements for use in the other specialized learning types. It is not generally intended for creating actual content. As such, each of the body sections in learningBase are optional.
