Overview

• The What’s Next tile is only available for the Private Dashboard because the data displayed is specific to the Learner, so it requires a logged-in Learner to generate the tailored recommendations.
• We recommend using the Tall Container feature for the What's Next Tile. When toggled on, the row of tiles will appear at twice their natural height. The What’s Next Tile is intended to be used with at least one other tall tile, for example, Collaborations Activity, Latest News, etc.

Setup Instructions

Adding a What's Next Tile

The following steps will walk through how to add a What's Next Tile to your Learner Dashboard. These are the required steps for creating a new tile; for additional options and common settings in all Tile types, please see the LMS Customization Guidelines - Dashboard Tiles article. The What’s Next Tile theme settings respect both Theme colors as well as the Customize Tile Theme colors.

Step 1: Navigate to Templates from the Setup tab on the left. This will open the Department Templates administrative report. 

Step 2: Select the Department Template that you would like to edit, then select Edit from the Actions menu. This will bring you to the Manage Templates menu for that Template.

Step 3: Next, select the Private Dashboard. Then, expand the Content drop-down section.

Step 4: Select Add New Content and then select the Tile Container Type. Select Add Tile(s), and then select the What's Next Tile. We recommend enabling the "Tall Container" toggle for the What's Next Tile.

Step 5: Scroll down and select Save on the bottom right of the Content section.
