Using $variables in Motivity - $learner, $target, $he

$variables can be used when writing programs to populate learner names and pronouns so when you share a template or program to another learner, the names/pronouns will auto-populate.

Using $variables in the Program Builder

Learner name will populate when you use any of the following $learner, $child, $student, $patient, $subject

Pronouns can be $he translates to she/he, $she translates to she/he, $her translates to her/his, $hers translates to her/his, $him translates to her/him

Target can be $target or $goal

$Variables can also be used as a way to build parameters so that target or goal names are auto-populated into a program so that you don't need to customize the interface for each target. 

Learner name $learner, $child, $student, $patient, $subject
Pronouns $he, $him, $her, $hers
Targets $targets, $goal
