Publishing Your Lesson

Lessons you write or copy and edit can be published on the CALI website and made available for your students.

These self-published lessons are not listed in the main CALI Lesson library on the CALI website. CALI hosts the lessons, but faculty must share the self-published lesson URLs with students in order to assign them. The best way to do this is through a LessonLink.

  • Once you have completed your lesson, publish your lesson from your My Lessons page.
    • From your open lesson, go to File in the upper left corner and choose Save & Exit to Lessons Home. From there, select My Lessons.
    • If you’re coming from outside the lesson, at www.cali.org select CALI Author from your CALI Dashboard, then select My Lessons.
  • Find your lesson in the list and select the arrow icon for Publish my lesson on www.cali.org. (Hovering over the icons will reveal their functions.)
  • Upon publishing the lesson, you will be taken to the lesson. You will also receive an email from webmaster@cali.org with the subject “[CALI] About Your Self Published Lesson.”
  • Once you have published your lesson, a new option to Run my published lesson on www.cali.org that looks like a play button will appear for that lesson.
  • Next, follow the instructions to assign the lesson using LessonLink.
Tip: If you publish your lesson and then make additional edits, you will need to re-publish for the changes to take effect on the published version. From your My Lessons page, choose the arrow icon to Update my published lesson on www.cali.org.
