Release 107 is here!

We’re excited to introduce new developments to our learning platform. This release, which goes live on Tuesday, 26 November, not only brings a powerful AI tool for content creation but also marks the first step toward a completely revamped learner experience.

Let’s dive into the details!

Changes for learners

Easy login

Speaking about the learner experience; we’ve tackled the login screens first. We’ve revamped the flow and made several improvements:

The login flow is now consistent across different use cases.
We’ve redesigned the login box to make elements easier to find. If you use a welcome message, it will now also appear in the login box.
Learners can now easily show and hide their passwords.

Curious about all the changes to the login screens and what they mean for your learning environment? A full explanation of all the improvements can be found here:

Changes for the staff side

Create AI generated multiple choice questions in a flash

Writing questions can be complex and time-consuming, especially when trying to create enough practice material to help learners feel confident in their knowledge.

Now, authors (with or without a writer's block) can generate multiple-choice questions using AI. Simply click the "+Question" button in an activity or in the content library. You can create questions based on text that you enter or you can select one or multiple content parts, and the AI-tool will generate relevant, high-quality questions.

Let AI do the hard work for you and be inspired by the questions it provides. This tool is also ideal for creating additional questions on specific topics to improve the MemoTrainer or adaptivity.

Let AI do the hard work

Hide past events for a cleaner overview

This feature has been available since August 23, 2024.

When updating an event, admins often encounter a large list. When most events have already taken place, this can get in the way of keeping a clear overview.

We’ve added a new filter, which allows admins to choose to display past events, upcoming events or all events. This makes it easier to focus on the relevant ones and improves the overall clarity of the event overview.

Make it more organised

Mark the assessment as completed when a passing grade is reached or after all attempts are used

This functionality has been available since October 25, 2024.

Currently, an assessment is marked as 'complete' once a learner completes the first attempt, regardless of whether they pass or fail. This follows the idea that even a failing grade is a result, which can shape the rest of the learning journey.

However, when assessments allow multiple attempts, marking them complete after just one attempt may not always be ideal, especially if completion triggers the unlocking of other content.

With the new setting in the 'properties tab', you can now choose when an assessment is marked as complete:

After the first attempt, regardless of the score (existing behavior).
Once the learner achieves a passing score or exhausts all attempts (new option).

This ensures learners complete the activity only when they meet the required criteria or have used all attempts.

Note: This setting can only be applied to new assessments. Existing assessments cannot be updated with this setting.

Restrict admin login as other users

This feature has been available since October 16, 2024.

In line with GDPR and data privacy best practices, we have updated the "log in as" feature for admins. This change enables each admin’s "log in as other users" permission to be turned on or off. This improvement enhances data security by allowing organisations to limit which admins can access other users’ accounts, aligning better with privacy regulations and organisational policies.

Upload multiple files at once

This feature will be available a few weeks after the release.

Authors can now upload multiple files simultaneously on the content library’s “files” page, and instructors can do the same when grading webinars or external activities.

Looking ahead: An invitation for feedback

This release includes several features that have been extensively tested in a BETA version, but we know feedback is essential for ongoing improvement. As you explore these new tools, we encourage you to share your thoughts with our Support Heroes. Whether it’s the AI-generated questions, the assessment settings, or any other tool, your insights will guide us as we continue to refine and expand the platform’s capabilities.

Enjoy exploring the new features!
