To begin with, you will have to download the DEPIT app.
The DEPIT app comes in two versions:
- a trial version, accessible to everyone without the need for any registration, to test the editor's features;
- a full version, accessible only by registering with an account, where all the online features to share materials are available.
The contents and videos of this course refer to the full version of the app, with the exception of the tutorials on using the editor, which illustrate the features also present in the trial version.
In the trial version, the user can test all the editor functions to build their own maps. In this version, however, the following features are not available, accessible only through the full version: saving your work online, sharing materials with other users of the app, accessing the model library and publishing content to students in your school.
