Overview

In this release, we’ve continued expanding the Groups integration with Learn, now adding support for the Instructor flow. Instructors can launch and join Groups sessions directly from the LMS, and scheduled session details are automatically added to their calendars with direct access links.

We’ve also improved assessment and grading workflows with enhanced document previews and more streamlined bulk downloads. Additionally, H5P content now includes better navigation controls to make interactive materials easier for learners to use.

Improvements

We've made the following improvements to enhance the platform functionality and the overall user experience:

  • Groups integration:
    • Expanded native Groups support in Learn to include the Instructor flow and enabled instructors to launch and join Groups sessions directly from the LMS.
    • Enabled automatic calendar events for course instructors, including direct join links for scheduled sessions.
  • H5P content:
    • Added a close button to H5P iframes for learners, similar to SCORM, which makes exiting the activity and navigating back to the course content easier.
  • Assessment and grading:
    • Instructors can now preview student submissions as PDFs directly in the grading interface, without downloading files. The supported formats include DOCX, PPTX, XLSX, TXT, and code files.
    • Bulk downloads now include learner names and UIDs in filenames (the format is [LearnerName][UID][AssignmentName].[ext]). This eliminates the need for manual renaming in peer review and grading workflows.
