NEW ENHANCEMENTS TO DRIVE LEARNER ENGAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATION

We continually release new features and enhancements based on your feedback and ideas. We want to share a recent addition for you here. You can review the complete list of changes in the August Release Notes.

ADMIN SWITCH NOW AVAILABLE IN PREPARATION FOR THE UPCOMING NOTES FEATURE

Notes for courses and books will allow learners to capture important points and concepts while in the flow of learning. Learners can then reference their notes at any time, helping them recall what they learned and apply it on the job. Taking notes online while learning helps keep learners actively engaged with content and facilitates retention.

If you keep the Notes feature enabled with the new admin setting, learners see:image

  • A Notes tab displays below the course player. Learners can take notes in the course at the video level. The note saves with a timestamp and a cue point.
  • When a learner clicks the cue point, the video starts from that point so that the learner can watch it again. Learners can edit or delete their notes at any time.
  • For books, the Notes option displays in the left panel, where learners can highlight a portion of text in the book and have the option to write their own notes for the highlighted text.
  • Under their profile, learners can go into Notes and view everything they’ve captured in one place. Each note offers a hyperlink to allow the learner to open the appropriate course or book with one click.

We are releasing the new admin switch that supports the Notes feature ahead of Notes being available to the learner. The admin setting is on by default to encourage adoption of this important feature. However, we understand some may want to disable the feature to align with corporate policies.

A MORE PROMINENT LIVE COURSE CALENDAR

To help promote Live Courses, learners can now explore the calendar from the Showcase section of the library and filter to see available Live Courses by start date, end date, and location.
