Templates
I went through the WNewbie tutorial and harvested all the templates I could find. This way I could see what iDevices are available, and what they look like. I also came across a quick start guide on the same topic; Quickstart_guide/pedagogical_templates What I found in the quick start page was a brief description of the iDevice template syntax;
A template is called using a predefined label and the text for your iDevice separated by "|" and all enclosed between two "{{ }}" braces.
Template:Preknowledge
Syntax: "{{Preknowledge | content}}"
Purpose: to prompt the learner to think about concepts and to provide knowledge before proceeding.
Example:
source:
{{Preknowledge|Have you ever wondered about the following issues:
* What should I know and / or consider before I begin a module?}}
what it looks like:

Template:Activity
Syntax: "{{Activity | content}}"
Purpose: to provide an activity that will reinforce the concepts described. The activity should be very hands-on where the learner actually implements what has been described or is asked to solve a problem that deepens their understanding of the concept.
Example:
source:
{{Activity|Discover and implement existing templates
* Go to any of the WNewbie pages and look at the templates used on the page.
* Ask yourself how are they used?
* Look at the template in edit mode.
* Copy and paste the template to you sandbox page, make some desired changes.}}

Template:Objective
Syntax: "{{Objective | content}}"
Purpose: a brief description of the learning objective for the module or subsection. This should be a single and succinct objective. If you are writing many objectives use the 'Objectives' template. Example:
source:
{{Objective | Upon completion of this section the learner will be able to identify the different types of templates and the describe how they should be used.}}
what it looks like:
| Upon completion of this section the learner will be able to identify the different types of templates and the describe how they should be used. |
Template:Description Template
Syntax: "{{TemplateName | content}}"
Purpose: a brief description of the iDevice template purpose, be succinct and where appropriate contrast to similar templates.
Example:
source:
{{TemplateName|Yada Yada}}
what it looks like:
