Using Breakroom for Training
The Breakroom for Training system can be added to any Region to facilitate student- or teacher-led instruction. Learn how to track your learning progress, take quizzes, and access in-world tools.
Overview
The Breakroom for Training system is designed to support online learning through the streamlined management of educational content. World Owners and other stakeholders can create student- or instructor-led courses consisting of structured learning modules, waivers, and quizzes, and integrate these touchpoints into live online instruction.
This section will show you how to access the Breakroom for Training tools as a student. For more information about creating Breakroom for Training courses or administering courses as an Instructor, please see our Breakroom for Training section.
Logging in
When you enter a Region that contains the Breakroom for Training system, you'll see the Breakroom for Training widget appear automatically on your screen. This widget can be dragged around the screen by clicking and holding the center button.
Upon login, you'll be guided through a quick tour of the widget tools. For reference, here's an overview of the four buttons, starting in the upper right corner and moving clockwise.
Quiz Activity
Allows you to review your quiz activity and progress for all active courses.
Opens your own personal in-world notepad, where you can take notes for each course.
Notifications
Contains notices, alerts, and messages about your course activity.
Allows you to view descriptions of all offered courses.
It's important to note that Breakroom for Training notifications will not persist between user sessions. When you log off, this information will no longer be accessible to you.
Taking quizzes
As Breakroom for Training courses are live and instructor-led, all quizzes are pushed forward by the teacher. Quizzes may contain a mix of timed and untimed material, multiple choice questions, free answer spaces, and matching games.
Question cards may contain See Reference Links or See Reference Images buttons. Clicking on these buttons will allow you to review material that may be necessary to answer a question, such as charts or writing excerpts.
The top portion of each question card contains grading requirements. Here you can see:
Whether the question is required or optional
What the answer requirements are (for example, you may need to make two choices, or write a minimum number of words)
Whether the answer requirements have been met (denoted by a red light or a green light)
How many points the question is worth
How many total questions are on the quiz
You can navigate between questions by using the forward and back arrows in the top right corner, or by clicking the Previous and Next buttons at the bottom of the quiz screen.
When you're done taking a quiz and click the final Next button, you'll be asked to confirm whether you want to submit your quiz for a final grade. Click the Submit button to do so, or click the Review button to continue working.
Completing waivers
Waivers can consist of syllabus information, content warnings, disclaimers, or requests for feedback. Just like quizzes, Instructors can push waivers to students. When you receive one, review the included information and click the relevant button to register your response.
