This release is centered around Collections, and items 1-3 reflect that.
1. This release focuses largely on Collections, with the development of the Collection Engine (VP-453) and the development of Portfolio Collections (VP-443). Collections allow an Administrator to group a set of Activities within a set Program. This group of Activities provides an easier view for the owner of the group of Activities, as they can now run reports from one page.
2. The owner of a Collection can see both a Learner (VP-452) and an Advisor view of their Activities, to quickly see who has Activities Completed, In Progress, or Late. Also, from these views, clicking on the number of Activities an individual Learner or Advisor is enrolled in will allow them to see, at a glance, those Activities and Responses.
3. The Collection will send email notifications on a weekly basis to course directors with status updates on their Collection.
Other items in this release:
4. Administrators can now create a Course.
5. The Learning Goals Dashboard is updated. It will show a total count, not a completed count, of goals for each student.
6. Search improvements are in progress for Moodle.
7. On an Activity page, if you have multiple Advisors who have open calendar slots, those are now viewable.
