The learning map
A learning map is the themed screen your learners see when they open your course. Lessons appear as tiles along a path, and the path takes on the look of the theme you choose, from a sprouting garden to a coding circuit board. You pick a map on the wizard step titled Pick a learning map for your course.Browse and choose a theme
The themes are shown in a carousel, with one map centered and in focus at a time.Move through the themes
Use the left and right arrow buttons to bring each theme to the center. You can also click a side card to slide it into focus. The centered theme is the one that gets selected.
Preview the full map
Click the centered map card, or the outlined Preview button below the carousel, to open the full-size learning map in a new browser tab. This shows the real map against a sample course so you can see exactly what learners will experience.
A theme is selected for you by default when you reach this step, so you can move on without clicking anything. Just make sure the centered, checked theme is the one you want.

Change the learning map later

Find the Change course theme card and click it. The card opens a window titled Choose a course theme with the same carousel you used in the wizard.
The reward currency
As learners complete lessons, your course rewards them with a themed currency. The reward currency step lets you choose what that currency is called and which icon represents it. You set this on the wizard step titled What reward currency should be earned in your course? This is a purely visual choice. It changes the name and icon learners see for the points they earn, not how much they earn or how it is spent.Choose a currency
The currencies are shown as a grid of cards, each with an icon and a name. Click a card to select it. A selected card is highlighted, and you continue to the next step once one is chosen. You can choose from:- Diamond
- Energy Spark
- Blueberry
- Vitamin Pill
- Pearls
- Car Tyres
- Dates
- Coins
The reward currency is chosen during course creation. Unlike the learning map, there is no card on the course page to change the currency afterward, so pick the one you want before you finish the wizard.
