Student resources
Student resources is everything students reach for when they need to find something: links, the help routes behind the four help buttons, the answers behind Ask Anything, and campus maps. It's distinct from the Content Library, which is reusable starters for your weekly content.
What lives here
- Resources. URLs and support pages grouped into sections (wellbeing, academic support, money, and so on) that students browse on their resources page.
- Help routes: the content behind the four help categories (money, time, people, wellbeing) shown when a student opens the help flow. Each route carries its own links, and can optionally embed a booking tool (a counselling-booking page, for example) right inside the help card.
- Ask Anything answers: the curated answers, with keywords and links, that power Ask Anything, plus a list of popular questions.
- Maps: campus map PDFs students can view in-app.
Keeping it current
Student-resources content uses the same lifecycle as the rest of your authoring:
- Draft
Add or edit an item. Drafts aren't visible to students.
- Schedule or publish
Publish immediately, or schedule it to go live at a set time. Items can be grouped, reordered, and scoped to specific weeks.
- Archive when it's stale
Archive anything out of date rather than deleting it, so the history is intact.
Students trust these resources because they're curated for their campus. A short list of the right links beats an exhaustive directory. Put the things people actually need first, and let Ask Anything handle the long tail.
How it reaches students
What you publish here surfaces across the student app: the resources page, the help flow, and Ask Anything. Because these are your university's own answers and links, students get campus-specific help rather than generic advice.
Common questions
What's the difference between this and the Content Library?
This is live content students see (links, help routes, answers, maps). The Content Library is reusable starters for weekly briefings. Drafts you build from, not things students see directly.
Can different cohorts see different resources?
Yes. Items can be scoped by week and targeted with tags and audiences.
Can I embed a booking tool in a help route?
Yes. When you edit a help route there's an optional Embedded tool field:
paste an https:// booking or support page (Microsoft Bookings, Calendly, and
the like) and students can open it inside the help card. It only loads when the
student taps it, and they always get an "open in a new tab" option too, so a
provider that blocks embedding is never a dead end. The address must be
https://. An insecure link is rejected.
Do students see a draft answer in Ask Anything?
No. Only published answers are searchable; drafts stay hidden until you publish.
