Today's release focuses primarily on the Learner Experience.
Learner's Class View
Team Evidence
Learners can now identify their team evidences with a Team Icon next to the evidence name. If they click on or hover over that icon, they can see their fellow team members.
Step Resources Available (even if no Step Description)
Resources that you add to Steps are now available to your learners using the Step Details button, even if you have not created a Step Description. (But of course, we always encourage you to include an engaging description to provide context for your learners.)
Clearer Class Portfolios
So that learners can see their ratings more easily, their Class Portfolios now default to an expanded view of both parent and child skills. They (or their parents) can click on the eyeball icons to see the evidence contained within each of the skill portfolios.
Evidence Resource Links Extended in Length
The Resources that you attach to evidence are now easier for learners to see and comprehend what they are.
Special Tip for Parent Conferences
Many teachers have found the Learner Portfolio Detail view to be a helpful visual tool for Parent Conferences. If you are not yet familiar with it, you can find it by clicking on the eyeball icon next to each Learner's name in your Classes > Portfolio view. In one scrolling view, you see each Skill Portfolio, with its description, rating and any evidence it contains
