2012 March Release


In this release we have made some major changes to the user interface, simplified some processes and added some minor updates as well. All these changes are listed below.

Group Summary Table Changes:
The Group Summary table now lists all of your academic groups on one page. It also provides all the vital information about each group on the same page.

Now instead of clicking on individual groups to access the detailed information all the group information like the number of students, total number of tests assigned, total number of session created and total number of credits available to the group is available on the same page 


Test Completion Process Update:

The test taking process has also been streamlined and two new options have been added to the “test session” page

1.“ Change Session Settings” allows the user to

  • Choose between the Q&A, Bubble sheet and grid mode to take the test.
  • Restrict the questions by section
  • Create a tag for each session
  • Display a timer

 

2. “ One Click Question Navigator” allows the user to

  • View questions by sections.
  • Have a complete picture of all attempted questions
  • Click and move directly to a question


User Interface Changes:

The user interface for the “assign test or upload results” has been updated. All the extra fields that were present on the page before have been removed and the test assignment process has been simplified. The big changes are

  • A test assignment email is sent to the student with the link to the student portal.
  • The level of access to the student is determined by the tutor.
  • The student portal now has the academy brand and logo
  • The password access has been replaced by the recaptcha.


Under the Hood Changes:
Socrato now supports different raw points for every question.
