Customizing and Creating Collections

Create an Original Collection

Create your own original collection to include your own quests, premade quests, or a combination of both to meet the needs of your students. You can use original collections to supplement or fill gaps in your existing course curriculum or to offer students extra practice and/or choice in what they learn.

Create an original collection

1. Click “My Library” located in the top right corner of any Quest Forward page.

2. Hover over the pencil icon in the top right corner and click “Create New”.

<

3. You will see a pop-up asking whether you want to create a quest or a collection. Click “Collection”.

4. Complete the steps in the pop up to create your collection. Start by adding the collection overview information. Enter a title, subject, and grade in the boxes provided. Click “Next” when done.

5. Add an optional description of the collection description. Click “Next” when done.

6. Add an optional list of any reading materials that would be needed in the collection. Click “Create Collection” when done.

Now that your collection has been created, you can add levels and quests to it. 

Add quests to your collection

1. Click “Add Quests” to search the Quest Forward library or My Library for quests to add to the collection.

2. Search all available quests by typing a keyword, phrase, or subject into the search bar located in the top of the page. You can toggle between the two libraries using the tabs next to the search bar. 

3. Click the + sign on a title for a quest to add it to the collection. Note: If you add a quest from the Quest Forward library to your collection, a copy of that quest will automatically be added to your library. 

4. Reorder quests by dragging and dropping the tiles into a different order.

Add levels to your collection

1. Click “Create Levels” to add the first two levels to the collection.

2. Click on any “Untitled Level” underlined in yellow in the top left corner of a level to edit the level’s title and description. Click “Save” when done.

3. You can add quests directly to their intended level, or you can drag and drop quests between levels. 

4. Click the (+) between levels to add a level to the collection.

5. Use the up and down arrows in the top right of each level to reorder levels.
