At the beginning of each session, you should review the previous session (if you are running more than one session). If you are developing a set of sessions, you should use a particular template called 'review of follow-up activities' to do this.  The wiki text for the "review of the follow up from last time" logically belongs to the previous session, so by using the "review of follow up" template, you will be able to attach this wiki text to the previous session. This process is a little more complicated, so we'll come back to this at the end!

You basically continue adding activities like this, often covering new topics.
 
= Session activity 2: Formatting text =
 
There are a number of templates that you can use for formatting the text. You have already met the "ednote" template, which creates an "educator/facilitator note':
<nowiki>{{ednote|text= Some text }}</nowiki>
as follows:
{{ednote|text=Some text}}
You can also use speechbubbles (see [[:Category:Speech_bubble_templates]]), e.g.
<nowiki>{{speechbubble|text= Some text }}</nowiki>
which creates
{{speechbubble|text=some text}}
You can also add "background reading",
<nowiki>{{background|text= some text }}</nowiki>
which creates
{{background|text= some text }}
 
= Adding resources =
 
== Wikitext ==
 
Wiki text can be transcluded, but in the case of worksheets etc that have additional information with them, you should use the "oinc" (OER4Schools Include) template, e.g.
<nowiki>{{oinc|OER4Schools/Geogebra exercises}}</nowiki>
giving:
{{oinc|OER4Schools/Geogebra exercises}}


You basically continue adding activities like this, often covering new topics.
== Files such as pdf, or OpenOffice ==
If an activity requires resources, you can add them using the ''file'' template:
<nowiki>{{File|Activity template.pdf}}</nowiki>
to give: {{File|Activity template.pdf}}. (Do not use <nowiki>[[File:...]]</nowiki>. Unlike <nowiki>[[File:...]]</nowiki> the <nowiki>{{File|...}}</nowiki> template links directly to the file, while the link to the info page is added as superscript. This makes it easier and less confusing for the user to obtain the file. Also by using <nowiki>{{File|...}}</nowiki> an entry is made in the session summary, alerting the facilitator to the need to download and potentially print this file for participants.)
 
== Videos ==
You can also add videos. Start by locating the video you would like to add on our [[Video|video page]], and once you have found the video you would like to include, simply transclude the video page, e.g.
<nowiki>{{: Video/Abel_Clip_4.m4v }}</nowiki>
to give
{{: Video/Abel_Clip_4.m4v }}
Sometimes videos have additional information attached, to them, such as background information, questions for reflection, or a transcript. In the case of the above video, it would be
<nowiki>{{: Video/Abel_Clip_4.m4v/background }}</nowiki>
<nowiki>{{: Video/Abel_Clip_4.m4v/reflection }}</nowiki>
to give background information:
{{background|title=About this video|text=
{{: Video/Abel_Clip_4.m4v/background }}
}}
and questions for reflection:
{{background|title=Questions for reflection|text=
{{: Video/Abel_Clip_4.m4v/reflection }}
}}
(both of which formatted additionally with the "background" template).  


If an activity requires resources, you can add them using the ''file'' template: {{File|my file.pdf}} and upload them.
== Audio ==


You can also add videos.
Audio materials are included in the same way as video materials. An example with a transcript is available here: [[Video/Priscillah_speaking_about_brainstorming.m4a]].
You can use the transcript template to format transcripts:
{{transcript|text=
{{:Video/Priscillah_speaking_about_brainstorming.m4a/transcript}}
}}
