edX Learning Management System
|
||||
*******************************
|
||||
|
||||
* An issue in which the `char` function caused some MATLAB problems to become
|
||||
unresponsive has been fixed. (TNL-388)
|
||||
|
||||
* Answers to a text input problem with a long input string did not render
|
||||
properly. This issue is fixed. (TNL-441)
|
||||
|
||||
* Python-evaluated input problems can now give partial, or decimal, grades for
|
||||
submissions. (TNL-198)

Coming Soon
|
||||
**************************
|
||||
|
||||
We're pleased to announce the following upcoming changes:
|
||||
|
||||
* Course teams will soon be able to access data about their courses on a
|
||||
dedicated dashboard for course-specific data. By providing insights into who
|
||||
your students are, and what they do while interacting with your course, the
|
||||
data available on this dashboard can validate choices you’ve made, reveal
|
||||
unexpected patterns, and inform plans for changes to the course.
|
||||
|
||||
* EdX will soon release a fully supported cohorts feature that allows course
|
||||
teams and TAs to assign students to different cohorts in class discussions.
|
||||
Students in different cohorts will be able to see the discussions for their
|
||||
individual cohorts, but cannot see discussions for other cohorts. Course
|
||||
teams can also open some course discussions to all students.
|
||||
|
||||
|
