Planning Your Content
Ask yourself:
Who will use this learning object and what are their needs?
What knowledge or skills should learners gain from this content?
How will it fit into their learning journey?
Choosing the Right Format
Single Learning Objects
Select the appropriate format based on your content type:
Format | Description | When to Use |
Interactive | Content in industry-standard formats (SCORM, xAPI, etc.) | For flexible learning modules that track progress, assess comprehension, adapt to individual needs, and report to your LMS |
Video | MP4 files or YouTube/Vimeo links | For explanations, how-to guides, lectures, etc. |
Audio | MP3, OGG, WAV files | For podcast episodes, audiobooks or recordings |
Link | External web content | When content is located in an external application or webpage |
Document | PDF format | For learning documentation |
Text | Written content | For instruction guides or documentation |
Multiple Learning Objects
Choose between:
Format | Description | When to Use |
Course | Structured collections of learning modules in a specific sequence | • When creating content in Go1 from scratch • When combining multiple media pieces (videos, documents, etc.) |
Playlist | Unstructured collections curated from Go1 library | When compiling existing courses (e.g., combining 3 Food Handling courses into one playlist) |
Note: For multiple SCORM files, use our Bulk Upload guide.
Technical Considerations
When uploading learning objects:
Ensure compatibility with learning management systems using SCORM standards
Meet Go1's performance criteria for load times and technical benchmarks
Test your content thoroughly:
Launch speed and readiness
Completion tracking functionality
Cross-domain playback from Go1 or partner domains
Verify content plays properly within Go1 player without cookie dependencies
Avoid using pop-ups in your content
Obtain proper authorization before collecting learners' personal data (requires signed Go1 DPA and written permission)
Following these guidelines will help ensure your content delivers an optimal learning experience while meeting Go1's technical requirements.
