Presentation   2018   December

December

At Foliotek, we work hard to provide the best assessment and portfolio software possible.  To do that, we make changes every week.  Sometimes we fix things that don't work, other times we release new features to improve your experience.  Below you will find a description of the changes we have made this month.

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • Sorry...nothing new this week.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • Some moderators were experiencing slowness when loading the Submissions tab when viewing a community.  This tab was optimized and opens much faster.
  • The Activity Group Category and Quiz reports available to moderators were loading and exporting slowly.

What we're working on

Watch for these items to be released in the next few weeks:

  • We will soon be increasing the number of audio file formats that can be added to, and played from, a project page.

What we fixed

12.10.2018

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

  • When viewing existing projects that contain instructions, the Instructions area will no longer auto-open each time you edit the project.  We also added a hover label to the instructions button reminding the user about the Instructions area.  This hover includes an 'opt out' option.
  • We improved the language on the Assessments tab in Presentation accounts.  This includes some improvements to the Acclaim badges option.
  • The Tags circle on the Dashboard will now highlight the tag that is represented by the section of the circle the user is hovering on.
  • We added hover labels to the Project page content buttons to describe what each button does.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • It was possible for some faculty accounts to show up as expired when viewing the members of a community.
  • Some of the language on the ID page Tip jar was changed to make it more understandable.
  • Faculty created portfolio templates were not selectable when creating deep linked assignments.
  • We updated the way submission totals are calculated in a Presentation community for deep linked project and portfolio templates.
  • We added a warning for users completing activities with multiple pages of content.  If the user attempts to submit the activity without viewing all of the pages, a warning will alert them to the presence of additional content.
  • It is now possible for community moderators to run Activity Group Category and Quiz reports on moderator created communities.

What we're working on

Watch for these items to be released in the next few weeks:

  • Nothing close enough to mention at this time.

These issues were fixed this past week:

  • There was a time during the past week when users could not upload any new files into Foliotek.
