Quest Ladder / Deliveries
Deliveries: the dose
A ladder is the design. A delivery is the thing a class actually receives.
The ladder owns the direction. The delivery owns the dose.
What a delivery is
A delivery takes a ladder and decides how a particular group meets it: in which mode, how much of it, by when, and who. The same ladder can have a gentle homework delivery and a timed exam delivery at once.
New delivery asks for very little: a Title — the placeholder suggests something like Week 4 homework — a Mode, optional Instructions, a Due date, Classes (optional) and a Linked ladder (optional).
You do not need a class. The page says so: with no classes this delivery still works by link, and you can add a class later to see who played. A link-only delivery gives you totals without names, which is often exactly right.
Draft, published, closed
| Status | Means |
|---|---|
| Draft | Yours to edit. Learners cannot reach it. |
| Scheduled | Set to open later. |
| Published | Live. Learners can work on it. |
| Closed | No more submissions. Results stay available, and you can publish it again later. |
The details are editable while a delivery is a draft or scheduled. Once learners have started, most of the terms are fixed, which is the point — a delivery whose rules change mid-way is not one you can report on.
Publish readiness
Before publishing, a readiness panel checks every item against what the chosen mode needs, and reports one of three states: all items meet the required and recommended sections; the required ones are complete but some recommended ones are missing; or required sections are missing and publishing is blocked.
When it is blocked you can still proceed with Allow publish with recommended gaps only (readiness override), which is deliberately worded to tell you what you are accepting.
The gaps are almost always the same two: a type with no stem variants going into an exam, or a type with no hints going into active learning. Both are worth fixing rather than overriding.
