Lessons
A lesson is one idea inside a module. It is where drills come from and where mastery is tracked.
What you actually build
When you sit down to build training in HeyLoopy, you are mostly building lessons. A lesson is one focused idea from inside a module : one rule, one step, one regulatory citation, one product fact your team needs to know cold.
The lesson is also where mastery is tracked. When your team consistently nails the drills tied to a lesson, that lesson is mastered. Mastery rolls up to the module so you can see, at a glance, which parts of the SOP have landed and which still need work.
What a lesson contains
Most lessons have three parts:
- Source material. The passage, paragraph, or procedure straight from the underlying document. This is what the drills are built from and what members see when they tap “show me where this comes from.”
- Drills. Short retrieval-style questions HeyLoopy drafts from the source, then you review. Each drill asks for one specific recall, not a paragraph-long essay.
- Reference material. Optional supporting context: a diagram, a checklist, a link back to the source-of-truth document.
How to size a lesson
A lesson should be small enough that a member can hold the whole idea in their head while answering a drill about it. The fastest test: try to describe the lesson out loud in one sentence without using the word “and.” If you cannot, it is probably two lessons.
Single-purpose lessons are also the reason your mastery numbers stay meaningful. A lesson that is secretly two ideas glued together produces inconsistent drill performance, and the mastery score for it stops telling you anything useful.
What you do not have to manage
You do not write every drill from scratch. HeyLoopy drafts the first pass from the source you uploaded; you edit, reject, and approve. You do not schedule when drills appear: that is the spacing engine’s job. You do not pick which members see which drill when: the Daily Loop handles that.
Your job is to make sure the lesson is one clean idea and that the drills, after your review, ask the right thing.
