Content Items

On the Content Items page, you see a list of all content created in that workspace including content created using the CAISY for Conversations app, the CAISY for Presentations app, and the Assessments app. To access the Content Items page, from the left navigation bar, select Content Items.

Types of Content

The different types of content items you may see on this page are:

  • CAISY for Conversations: These are simulations that allow learners to practice having real-world conversations in a safe, low-stakes environment.
  • CAISY for Presentations: These are simulations that allow learners to practice presenting a slide deck to an AI audience in order to improve their public speaking skills and get real-time feedback on their performance.
  • Assessments: These provide a great way for learners to assess their knowledge on certain concepts and receive dynamic feedback on how they can improve.

Find Content

The Content Items page contains the following features to help to locate specific content:

  • Search bar: If you know the name of the content item, you can search for it using the search bar at the upper left.
  • Filter by project: If you know which project the content item is located in, you can select that project from the project drop-down.
  • Filter by status: If you know the publishing status of the content, you can filter for it using the status drop-down. Content items have a status of draft, published, or unpublished changes.
  • Filter by content type: If you know the content type, you can filter for it using the content type drop-down. Content types include CAISY for Conversations, CAISY for Presentations, and Assessments.
  • Filter by creator: Filter for content Created by you or Created by everyone. If you know that you created the content you are looking for, this can help narrow down results.
  • Ready to publish: If you know the content you are searching for is in draft but is ready to be published to Percipio, you can select Ready to publish. This is helpful for users with publishing privileges to find content that is ready to be shared to learners.

For each content item in the list, you see the following information:

  • Title: This is the name given to the content item.
  • Type: The type of content. This could be either Assessment, CAISY for Conversations, or CAISY for Presentations.
  • Status: The statuses you may see are:

    • Published: The content has been published to Percipio and is available for learners to see.
    • Unpublished changes: The simulation has been published to Percipio, but further edits have been made after publishing in LX Design Studio. You may want to revisit this content for publishing.

  • Created by: The person who created the content.

Depending on your permissions and the status of the content, you may see the following actions under the options menu for each:
