Course has been updated but the labs have not #898

Can you help us understand why the labs, especially the lab order, have not been updated, now that the new AZ-104 course has been created? Storage and Networking Learning Paths are in reverse order from the original AZ-104 but the labs are not reflecting that. I also see that the learning modules in each learning path are not always aligned with the lab order of the original AZ-104 labs.

Are we to teach all of the theory for one or more learning paths (and all of the learning modules for each learning path) before we get the students to do their labs? This seems the only way around this issue at present.

My Preference would be to have shorter learning sessions with aligned targeted labs helping the students internalise the information better. But as it currently stands we now have old labs that are out of sync with the new learning modules, and this makes small targeted learning sessions very difficult to do without creating a lot of confusion.

To solve the Storage and Networking order issue, I intend to teach the learning paths so that the lab order makes sense, this means I will teach Networking before Storage to align with the current lab order.

@brentd09 - All the ILT course pages were recently updated to include only the Learning Paths. The AZ-104 course page does have the LPs out of order. I have made the change, but it will take a few days to publish to the frontend.

Does this fix the problem? If not, write back. Good catch.

Looks like this has been corrected. Adding that you can create a customized Collection of Learn modules to distribute to your students. And there is a new Plans feature which is similar to Collections, but you can add milestones. Happy learning.
