Fall 2020
This academic year we will be launching a new UI for instructors. This new UI will be released as an optional beta in the Fall and rollout to all users in the Spring semester.
Instructor UI
This will make it easier for you to manage your assignments and track student progress. This provides an at-a-glance view of assignment progress, recommended actions for each stage of the assignment, and simpler navigation through the tool. The new interface will better support large classes and especially those using the new asynchronous workflow.
Updates include a more detailed student tracker, easier-to-edit rubric creator, and flexible group management.
Enhanced Team Member Evaluation Features
Team Member Evaluation, where students assess their group members’ contribution, has been updated to make it easier to track students and their evaluations. Instructors can more easily group students and navigate through the assignment. We’ve also added functionality to allow instructors to have full downloads of all assignment information and see the students’ overall score. In Spring 2021, instructors will also be able to directly transfer student performance grades to the LMS gradebook based on a predetermined scale. There will also be additional settings to modify how students see their results.
