Hello everyone,
I hope you're all having a productive time designing your courses. I wanted to share a solution I've discovered for inserting tables into our course components within the Studio, which I know has been a bit of a challenge due to the lack of a direct table insertion feature.
Here's a simple solution: use the raw HTML feature under the text component to insert your table. Here's how I did it:
Create your table in Word or any other text editor that you're comfortable with.
Convert it to HTML using a Word to HTML converter. I personally find wordtohtml.net quite reliable.
Copy the generated HTML code.
Paste this code into the raw HTML area of your text component in the Studio.
To give you a better idea, here's a screenshot of the table I wanted to include in my course:
And this is what it looks like after converting it to HTML:
Once pasted, the table appears like this in the Studio:
You can always insert your tables as images, but I find this HTML method maintains the text's editability and accessibility.
I hope you find this tip helpful for your course designs.
Happy designing!
