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.

 

8.26.2019

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

• The ID page is now an option when creating assignments in Course Managment Systems that allow deep linked assignments.  Instructors will be able to select the ID page and have students build it out for a scoreable assignment.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

• It was possible to set a document file as the background image for the ID page.  This would cause the ID page editor to break.  Now an error alert will appear if a user tries to upload a document file as the background.

What we're working on

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

• Nothing to report right now.

8.19.2019

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

• We added some informaton to the User Activity and Users at Risk reports for Foliotek Presentation communities. Now there are columns on both reports that track the amount of time students spend working on Projects and the ID Page.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

• Moderators were unable to add attachments to feedback left on student work from the Members page in a community.
• New users would see an image behind the list of activities in an Activity Group, rather than the black background.  This issue would not be present the second time the user logged into Foliotek.

What we're working on

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

• Nothing to report right now.

8.12.2019

What's new

We released some new features and upgrades this week:

• We are doing an overhaul of Presentation communities.  You won't notice any difference when working in a community; we just want you to know it is working more efficiently.
• It is now possible to set up a link in an acitivity to the Student Resources associated with the Category the activity is in.
• A preview button is now available when building a Project.

What we fixed

These issues were fixed this past week:

• Chrome released an update recently that adversely affected the presence of groups inside a category and the look of the community buttons when a student attempted to submit an activity to a community.
• We made an update to the SSO system when a new user attempted to create an account in Foliotek but was not passing the correct external ID.
• Foliotek Presentation was not working in Edge.  All areas of a Presentation account will now work when using Edge as your browser.
• There was a visual issue with the buttons for submitted activities when a moderator would click on a student's box on the Members page in a community.
• The count for Projects in the student boxes on the Members page was not correct when a moderator was viewing a community.

What we're working on

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

• We are adding some informaton to the User Activity and Users at Risk reports for Foliotek Presentation communities.  Soon there will be columns on both reports that track the amount of time students spend working on Projects and the ID Page.
