Each course and lesson needs these images and text. Some other items are optional, like videos, downloadable files, and links.
Where content is located
Before users open a course, they might see it featured in a module. It displays the course’s image, name and abstract. Most modules use the smaller list image. Featured rotators use the larger banner image.

Once you start the course, it displays the list of lessons. Think of the course as the “container” for lessons inside of it.
