# Create resources for learning between sessions

Between-session resources should help learners prepare, practice, or revisit a specific explainx workshop task. Give every resource a clear purpose and next action.

## Keep required material focused

For a reading or video, state what learners should notice and how it connects to the next exercise. Estimate the time required. Label optional material separately so a long resource list does not become an unexpected obligation.

## Make practice possible

Include usable inputs, a worked example, and a review checklist. If a tool requires an account or paid plan, say so before assigning the task. Provide an alternative when reasonable.

## Check access and upkeep

Coordinate publication through the workshop dashboard and verify permissions. Test the resource with the same access learners will have. Update outdated screenshots or steps when a tool changes, and tell the cohort when a correction affects their exercise.
